Nagatoki was the ruler of the [[Fukashi]] area of north-central Shinano and allied with other Shinano [[daimyo|daimyƓ]] in an effort to stop the expansion of the [[Takeda clan (Kai)|Takeda]]. In [[1541]] he allied with the [[Suwa clan|Suwa]] and advanced into [[Kai province]], where he was defeated by [[Takeda Shingen]] at [[Nirasaki]]. He suffered defeat again, along with [[Murakami clan|Murakami]], Suwa, and [[Kiso clan|Kiso]], at the [[Battle of Sezawa]] in [[1542]]. After meeting further defeats at Shingen's hands, notably at [[Shiojiritoge]] ([[1548]]) and [[Uenohara]] ([[1552]]), and suffering the loss of [[Fukashi castle]] ([[1550]]), Nagatoki sought refuge (along with [[Murakami Yoshikiyo]]) in [[Echigo province|Echigo]]. While Murakami continued to fight the Takeda, Nagatoki retired to teach archery and horsemanship. He was murdered under mysterious circumstances many years later.
