Aizu han had built 3 batteries on the pass. 8/21 early morning, one battery had fallen. Aizu troops weren't able to find enemy troops quickly because of dense fog. Emperor loyalist troops broke through the pass in the evening. They secured ''Juroku bashi'' next day.

Unfortunately, main troops of Aizu han were at Nikko-guchi when Emperor loyalist troops reached Juroku bashi. Lord Matsudaira Katamori had to send [[Byakkotai]] to block them.
