Clan of Stratagem : Clan which Tokugawa Ieyasu is afraid of most
Cache point is in Ueda Castle that is the symbol of the Ueda city.
Ueda Castle is a castle fortified by Sanada Masayuki (father of Sanada Yukimura) who was the vassal of the Takeda family in 1583.
There is no castle tower.
It is famous because the Ueda battle that repulsed the attack of the Tokugawa force over two times in this castle was held though it is a really small castle.
In fought with the Tokugawa army this place it was Sanada Masayuki and his sons.
Sanada Masayuki
Also twice, Tokugawa's force is defeated at this castle.
Moreover, the battle of Mikatagahara is also defeating the Tokugawa army with a brave elder brother, Nobutsuna and others.
Sanada Nobuyuki
In eldest son of Masayuki, after you fight off twice Tokugawa army, the result of discussions order to survive the Sanada family, from reasons such as marriage relationship to the servants of the Tokugawa family.
Turning to Matsushiro it has succeeded in that to survive the Sanada family until now.
Sanada Yukimura (Nobushige)
He is the second son of Masayuki.
It is said that it was seemingly the force with the considerable rush which aimed at only Ieyasu's head, and the sturdy direct vassals of a shogun who protect Ieyasu also escaped in military power in Summer siege of Osaka Castle although it was quite a small number of Sanada army.
It is said that Ieyasu also escapes in such a situation and it was ready for the self-edge.
However, the last was cornered and was killed in war in the Yasui Shrine in Osaka.
Although it is said that, as for Ieyasu's banner stood beside the horse of a commander leading warriors in battle having fallen, there was the two whole life, it is a battle of Mikatagahara and Summer siege of Osaka Castle.
Is it accidental that the Sanada parent and child were concerned also with the battle of which?
[The 1st Ueda battle]
Strength: Sanada force 1,200 vs Tokugawa force 7,000
[The 2nd Ueda battle]
Strength: Sanada force 3,500 vs Tokugawa force 38,000
Therefore, it is "Sanada's castle" for Ueda's person though such Sanada's residence period is not long.
It crowds with a lot of citizens and tourist when there is a tree of a lot of cherry blossoms in the park, and it becomes the season of enjoying seeing cherry blossom.
Cache was in Ueda Castle, and was set up in "Sanada well" the vicinity.
This well has the loophole and it seems to be able to escape outside the castle.
Moreover, when the Ueda town is looked at here, the reason to make the castle here might be understood.
It is a plastic container.

キャッシュポイントは上田市のシンボル、上田城跡公園にあります。
上田城は、武田氏の家臣であった真田昌幸（真田幸村の父）により、1583年に築城された城です。
天守閣があるわけでもなく本当に小さな城ですが、この城で二度にわたる徳川軍の攻撃を撃退した上田合戦が行われたことで有名です。
ここで徳川軍と戦ったのは真田昌幸とその息子たちでした。
真田昌幸
徳川の大軍を二度もこの城で撃破しています。
また、勇猛な兄、信綱たちとともに、三方ヶ原の戦いでも、徳川軍を撃破しています。
真田信之（信幸）
昌幸の長男で、二度徳川軍を撃退したあと真田家を存続させるための話し合いの結果、婚姻関係などの理由から徳川家の家来になりました。
松代に移って現在まで真田家を存続させています。
真田幸村（信繁）
昌幸の次男です。
大坂夏の陣では、兵力的にはかなり少数の真田軍でしたが、家康の首のみを狙った突撃が相当な迫力だったらしく、家康を守る屈強な旗本たちも逃げ出したそうです。
そういう状況で家康も逃げ出して、自刃を覚悟したそうです。
しかし最後は追い詰められ、大阪の安居神社で戦死しました。
家康の本陣の馬印が倒れたのは生涯二度といわれますが、それが三方ヶ原の戦いと大坂夏の陣です。
どちらの戦いにも真田親子が関わっていたのは偶然でしょうか。
第一次上田合戦
真田軍1,200人 vs 徳川軍7,000人
第二次上田合戦
真田軍3,500人 vs 徳川軍38,000人
そのため真田氏の居住期間はそんなに長くはないのですが上田の人にとっては、「真田氏の城」なのです。
公園に多くの桜の木があり、お花見の季節になると多くの市民や観光客で賑わいます。
キャッシュは、上田城の中にある、「真田井戸」付近に設置しました。
この井戸には抜け道があって城外に脱出できるようになっているそうです。
またここから上田市街を眺めると、ここに城を作った理由が判るかもしれません。
プラスチック製の容器です。
Let's enjoy caching!
