「たとえ手勢が少なくとも、国内において一矢も交えずに通過させることはできません」と申し上げた。
〇さて、御所（将軍足利義満）は十二月二十五日の夜、古山十郎満藤の邸宅である柳原の宿所へ入御され、「今夜、合戦についての御評定を行うべし」とのことで、諸大名をお召しになった。その夜、召しに応じて参上した人々は、まず細川武蔵入道常久、その舎弟（弟）の右京大夫頼元、同じく淡路守、畠山右衛門佐基国、その子息弾正少弼、今川上総介泰範、同左衛門佐仲秋、一色刑部大夫、勘解由小路治部大輔義重、大内介義弘、赤松上総介義則、佐々木治部少輔高詮など、われもわれもと続々と参集した。

合わせてその勢い八百余騎が、二十六日の早朝に陣を張り、四方の門を固め、所々に矢倉（櫓）を上げて、久我縄手の作り道から攻め入る敵に相対した。御所（将軍）は二十六日の辰刻（午前八時頃）に、一色刑部大夫の邸宅である中御門堀河の宿所へ出御なされた。家臣（山名氏）を御退治のための出陣であるからとて、御鎧（よろい）もお召しにならず、御烏帽子に長絹の御直垂をお召しになり、「篠作」と呼ばれる御太刀を帯びられた。御馬廻（将軍の近衛騎馬武者）もみな折烏帽子に素袍袴（そほうはかま）であった。その他の諸軍勢はみな混甲（鎧を着用した状態）で、一備え一備えと打って出て、内野に陣を取った。まず細川武蔵入道常久は、舎弟の右京大夫・淡路守とともに、合わせてその勢い二千余騎で、中御門西大宮・右近馬場を前面に定め、峯の堂から下って上梅津を越えて攻め入ると聞こえた、山名播磨守の勢力に相向かった。赤松（上総介義則は）……

"Even though our forces are few, we cannot allow them to pass through this province without exchanging at least one arrow in resistance," the report declared.
〇Meanwhile, on the night of the twenty-fifth day of the twelfth month, the Gosho (Shogun Ashikaga Yoshimitsu) proceeded to the lodgings of Furuyama Jūrō Mitsufuji's residence at Yanagihara, declaring that a council of war regarding the night's battle would be held, and summoned the various daimyō. Those who attended in response to the summons that night included: Hosokawa Musashi Nyūdō Tsunehisa, his younger brother Ukyō-no-daibu Yorimoto, and Awaji-no-kami (also of the Hosokawa), Hatakeyama Uemon-no-suke Motokuni and his son Danjō-no-shōhitsu, Imagawa Kazusa-no-suke Yasunori and Saemon-no-suke Nakaaki, Isshiki Gyōbu-no-daibu, Kadenokōji Jibu-no-tayū Yoshishige, Ōuchi-no-suke Yoshihiro, Akamatsu Kazusa-no-suke Yoshinori, and Sasaki Jibu-no-shōyū Takanobu — all rushed to attend one after another.
〇Meanwhile, to Tō-ji were dispatched Imagawa Kazusa-no-suke Yasunori, Echigo-no-kami, Sasaki Rokkaku Hangan,

with a combined force of over eight hundred horsemen. Deploying at dawn on the twenty-sixth, they secured the gates on all four sides, erected arrow towers (yagura) at various points, and stood ready to engage the enemy advancing along the constructed road through Koga Nawate. The Gosho (Shogun) departed at the Hour of the Dragon (approximately 8 a.m.) on the twenty-sixth to the lodgings of Isshiki Gyōbu-no-daibu's residence at Nakamikado Horikawa. Since this was a sortie to suppress his own retainers (the Yamana), he did not don his armor, but instead wore an eboshi (court cap) with a long-silk naoshire (formal surcoat), and girded himself with a sword called "Shinozukuri." His mounted escort likewise all wore folded eboshi and plain suō-hakama. The remaining military forces all went forth fully armored, deploying unit by unit, and took up positions in the Uchino (the former site of the Imperial Palace). First, Hosokawa Musashi Nyūdō Tsunehisa, together with his younger brothers Ukyō-no-daibu and Awaji-no-kami, with a combined force of over two thousand horsemen, took up positions facing the Nakamikado Nishi-Ōmiya and Ukon-no-baba, descended from Mineno-dō, crossed Kami-Umezu, and advanced against — as was reported — the forces of Yamana Harima-no-kami.
