    NOTE: I made some pronunciation screw ups like Oda with a U instead of A...I missed that when editing it and once uploaded its tough as you only have 2 choices...live with it...or delete it. Since it had already gained comments and views it didn't make sense to delete it. Mistakes WILL and Did happen so apologies in advance.

    @dustin6947 4 года назад +3

    Nice video. Just a heads up. When you say "Takeda" it sounds like you are saying "Takada". "ke" sounds closer to how you would pronounce the letter "k" in English.

    • @YoreHistory
      @YoreHistory  4 года назад +1

      Thanks Dustin. Appreciate the feedback. I know it may sound defensive (and to an extent of course it is lol). Pronunciations are a strange beast. I have yet to see a historical video series where one or more names are not mispronounced. Or are pronounced correct but maybe not the way most associate with it.
      Then there is the question of do you pronounce the name based on the native language of the region...and if you go down that path do you pronounce based on the modern version of the language in the region or its ancient variant.
      Let's use a Persian name like Darius for all of the above examples...in modern Canadian English you can use (Phoenetically) "Duh" + "RY" + "uhs" or "DARE" + "E" + "us".
      Some names there are additional differences based on whether its UK/US/Canadian/NZ/SA/AUS english...
      That same name in modern Persian is Dariamauis...but in Ancient persian its "DAR" + "YEH" + "VOWSH"
      Japanese similiar but different. My rule is i aim for the following:
      Generally accepted english translation unless non standard but accepted one is closer to the ancient native language version. Using my above Persian example that is why i went with "DAR" + "E" + "YES" its closest to Ancient Persian.
      Now aside from ALL of that i will from time to time make mistakes in any of the above. Japanese and especially Chinese names are tougher for me. That is why after the video you are referencing there hasn't been another part. The pronunciation became too big of an issue and one I don't care to repeat until i can get them much more accurate and the time to do exactly that has thus far eluded me! :)
      So hope that all helps but again appreciate your feedback!

    Even if it was a mistake to be fighting there, cant help but cheer for shingen.
    Tiger of north shinano leading 15000 man force to face the two strongest daimyos in japan with 30,000 men is pretty ballsy. Still think he makes a better fight of this if he pulls out of his siege and tries to pick his battlefield. Rather than letting nobunaga set the field. Maybe they catch a weather break and the guns are out. Or they could of tried ambush and harrasing raids with the calvalry once they were in Takeda territory or even just find terrain that would minimize the gunner core.
    Guess thats what made Shingen who he was, and nobunaga who he was.

    The Battle of Nagashino basically allowed Nobunaga to show off how cunning he is in terms of planning battle strategies. How to neutralize the legendary Takeda Cavalry? Build palisades and spikes? Eager to beat the enemy or at least cut down a significant number of their forces? Let the rifles blast all the men of Takeda and let them fire in an alternate pattern in order for the other gunners to replenish ammunition.
    It would be a total disaster for Nobunaga and Ieyasu if Uesugi Kenshin make a surprise appearance and bolster the ranks of Takeda Katsuyori and the two former rivals are going to work together to crush the Oda and Tokugawa forces

      The staggered rotation was brilliant. Not necessarily a new tactic as many other empires like the Parthians who fired their arrows in similar staggered ranks so famously at Carrhae for example. He did absolutely employ it using a then still relatively new military technology so again brilliant indeed.

    If I were the Takeda’s General I would’ve send my Calvary and infantry and attack the southern part that wasn’t defended by palisades and the matchlock group which in response would also weaken the center and cause more neeeded reinforcement to protect the southern flank. With the center weaken then I can use my calavary and destroys the center and the right flank.

It not 100% sure win with what if " one perfect move" in history. I see one flaw in Takeda is he guess the rain from the night it wet gunpowder and make the gun useless.

      Seems unfair, Tokugawa fought at mikatagahara yeah they lost but as a result stopped takeda's march on the capital thus protecting there oda allies, they also played a really important part at angegawa. Tokugawa basically acted like a buffer allowing the oda to deal with central japan and then western japan. Tokugawa opted to bend the knee to Hideyoshi but by all means could have fought and came out on top instead they opted to fall Hideyoshi while gaining some favorable perks that in the long term ended up winning them control. Tokugawa was very patient and in the end was left in postion to take control.

    • @YoreHistory
      @YoreHistory  5 лет назад +3

      Takeda was supremely overconfident...his cavalry charge had won him countless battles previous to this one. Here he was able to attack with cavalry at full speed almost invisible until the last 200 to 400 meters of their charge...throw favorable weather into that in the form of heavy rain which he felt would cause the guns to fail and you can see the chalice of delusion he was sipping from...he likely felt the chance of NOT steamrolling over the matchlock troops to be so slim it wasn't even worth having a contingency plan for.

      @@eardwulf785 Japan was introduced to handgonnes by China. Handgonne was never further developed by Japanese though. Later on Portugal introduced matchlocks, which Japanese did produce without stocks, which made guns few grams lighter, more compact, yet a lot less ergonomic when fired.

    I really like the way you tell battle stories. However, your inflection during history portions of your stories is not nearly as good.

    The portrayal of this battle in "Kagemusha" is terribly oversimplified for dramatic effect.

      It was an older video and was something i recognized. Recent videos are much better.

    How come gunpowder was invented in China and had to go all the way around the world before it got back to Japan? Were there no feisty Chinese fishermen who ruled the Sea of Japan at the end of their fire lances?
    China is right there. You might even be able to HEAR gunshots in some parts of China from some parts of Japan.

      The first firearms in Japan actually came from China. They were hand-held cannons called Ozutsu(Big pipe.)

    It's politically incorrect to say 'Sea of Japan.' 'East Sea' is the right way to call the sea between Korea and Japan.

      When dealing with historical topics the naming convention is generally to use names that fit the period and are centric to the cultures/countries being dealt with. For example, videos dealing with the Byzantines you wouldn't refer to their capital as Istanbul, you would use Constantinople. Likewise, take the Persian Gulf and many others as examples of this. I find for immersion this works much better than going with 21st century names/correctness. But DO appreciate your feedback Dr_Pureness. Thanks for dropping by!

      ​@@YoreHistory Resently only Korean started call it "east sea" and trying to spred the name of the ocean to the world. because they want to harass Japan for anything for any reason. but histollycally there is no evidence with it. So Korean can name it what they want to but the other worlds don't have to listen.

      It actually geography corrected called Sea of Japan. Couldn’t care less about whole disputes nonsense. You can find many East Sea naming around the global.
