Kenshin X Nobunaga Tedorigawa Kassen No Shinjitsu (PHP Shinsho)

[Machine Translation] In 1577, Uesugi Kenshin's army and Oda Nobunaga's army clashed at the Tedorigawa River in Kaga. This battle is regarded as a "phantom battle" due to the lack of historical records. Kenshin and Nobunaga had long been friends. What was the reason for the friendship between Kenshin and Nobunaga? Why did it break down, and why did they clash militarily? What happened to both sides after the war? In this book, an up-and-coming historian carefully describes the lives of the two heroes based on historical documents, and finally reconstructs the circumstances of the battle of Tedorigawa. He tells new facts that no one had noticed before, such as "It was Hideyoshi Hashiba who fought hard until the end at the Tedorigawa River" and "The whole story of Kenshin's plan for Kamigakusyo".

天正5年(1577)、上杉謙信軍と織田信長軍が加賀・手取川で激突。史料に乏しく「幻の合戦」と目されている手取川合戦である。もともと謙信と信長は長らく友好関係を結んでいた。両者は何を理由に友好関係を結んだのか。それがなぜ破綻して軍事衝突することになったのか。合戦後両者はどうなったのか。本書では気鋭の歴史家が、両雄の生涯を史料に基づいて丁寧に綴り、最後に手取川合戦の経緯を復元。「手取川で最後まで奮戦したのは羽柴秀吉だった」「謙信が企んだ上洛作戦の全貌」などこれまで誰も気づかなかった新事実を語る。
