Oda Nobunaga's first great victory, where he decimated the far stronger Imagawa clan by attacking while they were resting. This battle turned the Oda into a rising clan, leading to Nobunaga's eventual domination of central Japan.

Battle of Nagashino Report Abuse
Oda Nobunaga's greatest victory, over the powerful Takeda clan. His utilization of musket tactics to defeat the Takeda's famed cavalry spelled an end to the old way of battle and secured Nobunaga's place as the premier daimyo of Japan.
