（加賀の一揆が）起きたために上洛もせなかったのは、武道において拙い考えから出たことである。そのうえ斎藤龍興を扶助し、あまつさえ三好の先駆けの大将に龍興が出たことも、皆朝倉のしわざである。次に浅井父子が近江国に蟠居して信長の下知に従わないのも、これも義景を後ろ盾に頼んでいるのかと思われるので、越州（越前）へ発向すべしと申されたという（云々）。

武田義統の死
このころ若州（若狭国）大飯郡高浜の逸見駿河守は降参した。同国小浜の武田義統は敵であったが、近ごろ頓死し、養子の右京亮義頼は愚暗（暗愚）であるゆえ、若州が（義頼に）背き、家臣の粟屋・山縣・熊谷・松宮・内藤らが（信長の）味方に志が深いと、明智が（信長に）語ったという（云々）。

信長、敦賀へ出張（しゅっちょう）、初度
信長は卯月（四月）二十日に八瀬・途中（とちゅう）を過ぎ、朽木越えをして若州熊川に着陣した。この地に松宮玄蕃という者が武田を背いて織田家へ降ったゆえ、すなわち

坂井右近将監重康に千五百騎を相添えて熊川に留め置いた。また京極長門守高吉・後藤喜三郎頼基は千余騎にて江州（近江国）今津の西に陣を張り、敵の城々を押さえた。信長は熊川より道を変え、小浜の城を横目に見て（迂回し）、粟柄越えにかかり新庄へ到り、熊谷内膳を召し連れ、それより佐柿の粟屋越中守を案内として、越州（越前）敦賀の津へ出張した。朝倉はこのことを聞いて、山崎長門守・托義越後守・河合安芸守・小林備中守・魚住備後守・富田下総守に数千騎を添えて敦賀へ遣わし、金ヶ崎の城主・朝倉中務大輔景恒に合力させようとした。義景も木目峠に本陣を置かれた。信長は金ヶ崎の枝城である手筒山の要害を攻めるべしとして攻め登った。城主・寺田采女助は防戦かなわず討死した。かかるところへ江……
英語訳
[Right folio]
[That Yoshikage had not come up to the capital] because [the Kaga] ikki arose was the result of poor judgment in military matters. Furthermore, [Yoshikage] had supported Saitō Tatsuoki, and moreover the fact that Tatsuoki appeared as the vanguard commander of the Miyoshi forces was entirely Asakura's doing. Next, as the Azai father and son were ensconced in Ōmi Province and not complying with Nobunaga's orders—this too seemed to be because they were relying on Yoshikage as their backer—[Nobunaga] declared that he should advance on Ecchū [Echizen] Province (and so forth).
[Marginal note in vermillion, upper margin:]
Death of Takeda Yoshimune
Around this time, Hemi Suruga-no-kami of Takahama in Ōi District of Wakasa Province submitted [to Nobunaga]. Takeda Yoshimune of Obama in the same province was an enemy, but he had recently died suddenly, and since his adopted son, Ukyō-no-suke Yoshiyori, was of dim-witted character, the province turned against him, and Mitsuhide informed [Nobunaga] that retainers such as Awaya, Yamagata, Kumagai, Matsumiya, and Naitō were deeply committed to joining [Nobunaga's] side (and so forth).
[Marginal note in vermillion, upper margin:]
Nobunaga's First Advance to Tsuruga
On the twentieth day of the fourth month, Nobunaga passed through Yase and Tōchū and crossed over via Kutsuki, arriving at Kumakawa in Wakasa Province. Since a man called Matsumiya Genba in this area had turned away from the Takeda and surrendered to the Oda clan, [Nobunaga] thereupon

had fifteen hundred cavalry attached to Sakai Ukon-shōgen Shigeyasu and left [them] stationed at Kumakawa. Also, Kyōgoku Nagato-no-kami Takayoshi and Gotō Kisaburō Yorimoto, with over a thousand cavalry, established a camp to the west of Imazu in Ōmi Province and contained the enemy castles. Nobunaga changed his route from Kumakawa, passed by Obama Castle from a distance, took the Awagara mountain pass, arrived at Shinjo, took Kumagai Naizen along, and then, using Awaya Etchū-no-kami of Sagaki as his guide, advanced to the port of Tsuruga in Echizen Province. Upon hearing of this, Asakura dispatched Yamazaki Nagato-no-kami, Takugi Echigo-no-kami, Kawai Aki-no-kami, Kobayashi Bitchū-no-kami, Uozumi Bingo-no-kami, and Toda Shimōsa-no-kami with several thousand cavalry to Tsuruga, with the intention of reinforcing Asakura Nakatsukasa-no-taifu Kagehira, the commander of Kanagasaki Castle. Yoshikage also established his main camp at Kinome Pass. Nobunaga, declaring that he should attack the stronghold of Tezutsu Mountain—a subsidiary castle of Kanagasaki—climbed up to assault it. The castle commander, Terada Uneme-no-suke, was unable to hold out in battle and died fighting. It was at this juncture that from Ōmi [Province]…
