In the 5th month of 1560, Chôsokabe Kunichika captured [[Nagahama castle]] from the Motoyama clan.  In response to this, Motoyama Shigetatsu departed [[Asakura castle]] with 2,500 men to take the castle back.  Kunichika intercepted him with 1,000 troops near [[Nagahama castle]].  This battle is noted for being Chôsokabe Motochika's first battle, in which he fought bravely, greatly impressing his father and his retainers.  Shigetatsu was completely routed and fled to [[Hirado castle]], where Kunichika held him in siege until he was forced to withdraw due to illness.
