| dbo:abstract | Le siège du château d'Ōta (太田城の戦い, Ōta Jō no Tatakai) de 1585 fait partie d'une série d'attaques menées par Toyotomi Hideyoshi contre les fanatiques religieux Ikkō-ikki vers la fin de l'époque Azuchi Momoyama de l'histoire du Japon. Cette bataille fait suite au siège du Negoro-ji au cours duquel les forces de Hideyoshi ont incendié un complexe de temple ; un certain nombre de fanatiques Saika ikki s'échappent vers le proche château d'Ota tenu par Ōta Munemasa. En raison de la topographie de la région, Hideyoshi comprend qu'il ne peut pas facilement incendier cette forteresse comme il l'a fait au Negoro-ji. Il décide d'utiliser à la place une tactique d'inondation, comme cela a été le cas trois ans plus tôt au . La présence des fanatiques ikki met déjà à rude épreuve les provisions en nourriture du château d'Ōta et autres ressources avant même le début du siège. Avec la construction d'une palissade et une série de digues à environ 300 mètres du château, Hideyoshi commence le processus d'isolation du château de ses fournitures et d'inondation, processus accru par de fortes pluies. À un moment donné, une partie de la digue cède, entraînant la mort par noyade de plusieurs des hommes de Hideyoshi. Cependant, au 22e jour du quatrième mois lunaire, la garnison ne peut tenir plus longtemps et se rend. Cinquante samouraïs commettent seppuku. Après que Hideyoshi a pris le château, il ordonne que soient tués tous les membres des familles de samouraïs tandis que les paysans sont simplement désarmés et renvoyés aux domaines de leurs seigneurs.

This battle followed the siege of Negoro-ji, in which Hideyoshi's forces burnt a temple complex to the ground; a number of the Saiga Ikki zealots escaped to nearby , which was held by . Due to the topography of the area, Hideyoshi determined that he could not easily burn this fortress as he had the Negoro-ji; he decided to instead use flood tactics, as he had three years earlier in the siege of Takamatsu. The presence of the Ikki zealots was already straining Ōta's supplies of food and other resources even before the siege began. With the construction of a palisade and series of dikes roughly 300 meters from the castle, Hideyoshi began the process of isolating the castle from supplies, and flooding it, a process bolstered by heavy rains. At one point, part of the dike gave out, resulting in the drowning deaths of several of Hideyoshi's men. However, by the 22nd day of the fourth lunar month, the garrison could hold out no longer and surrendered; fifty samurai committed seppuku. As Hideyoshi took over the castle, he ordered all those from samurai families killed, while peasants were simply disarmed of all weapons, and sent back to their lords' fields.

Il castello di Ōta, la cui guarnigione era considerevolmente aumentata dai monaci in fuga dal tempio di Negoro-ji, era sotto il comando di . Le difese del castello rendevano impraticabile la stessa tattica utilizzata col fuoco al tempio di Negoro-ji, quindi Hideyoshi optò per la sua tecnica preferita e ordinò la costruzione di una diga per deviare le acque del Kiigawa e inondare il castello. A causa della topografia locale costruire una diga lungo i lati nord, ovest e sud del castello era un compito più difficile rispetto a Takamatsu, ma una lunga palizzata fu comunque costruita ad una distanza di circa 300 metri dalle mura del castello e riempita di terra. Sul lato orientale la diga fu lasciata aperta per consentire l'ingresso delle acque. Dal 9 maggio le acque del Kiigawa cominciavano a riempire il bacino attorno alle mura del castello. Le forti piogge aiutarono il lungo processo di riempimento, isolando completamente la guarnigione. Tuttavia i difensori non si arresero, incoraggiati anche dal parziale crollo di una sezione della diga di Hideyoshi che causò la morte di numerosi assedianti mentre l'acqua usciva dal bacino. Ma presto la fame cominciò a prendere il sopravvento e il 21 maggio la guarnigione si arrese e 50 samurai lanciarono una carica finale contro l'armata di Hideyoshi, suicidandosi onorevolmente. I rimanenti soldati, contadini, donne e bambini che furono trovati nel castello vennero disarmati. Gli appartenenti alle famiglie dei samurai vennero decapitati mentre i contadini furono rimandati nelle loro terre. (it) |
