One of [[Takeda Shingen|Takeda Shingen's]] senior retainers, Nobufusa (also known as Nobuharu) was the son of [[Baba Torasada]] and served three generations of [[Takeda clan|Takeda]] daimyô – [[Takeda Nobutora|Nobutora]], Shingen, and [[Takeda Katsuyori|Katsuyori]]. He was present at most of his Shingen's battles, notably, [[Battle of Kawanakajima|Kawanakajima]] ([[1555]],[[1561]], et cetera), [[Battle of Odawara|Odawara]]/[[battle of Mimasetoga|Mimasetoge]] ([[1569]]), and [[Battle of Mikatagahara|Mikatagahara]] ([[1572]]). He was awarded [[Fukashi castle]] in [[Shinano province|Shinano]] in [[1550]], and inherited the title of Mino no kami after [[Hara Toratane]] died in [[1564]]. Nobufusa fell out of favor somewhat with Takeda Katsuyori, but, despite personal objections, led his men in a charge against [[Oda Nobunaga|Oda Nobunaga's]] left at the [[Battle of Nagashino]] on 29 June [[1575]]. Nobuharu survived the morning's slaughter (some 10,000 Takeda warriors and many of his collegues fell) and protected Katsuyori's retreat across the Kansagawa. Nobuharu then turned with his remaining troops and was cut down by the enemy.
