聞て関東の御方として本国に馳上り大坂の軍勢
当国に攻下ると聞へしかは其勢わつかに六百人今尾の
城にたてこもる市橋か分際さそあるらん東国の敵破れ
なは降人にこそ参るへけれとて伊藤丸毛か勢藤川の
前に陣とつて攻るにも及はす長勝城より討て出
水をへたてゝ矢軍に日をくらし敵陣に夜討して
散々に戦ひしかはよせ手こらえす福岡の城に入長勝
つゝきて攻しほとに城をもつゐに落されて大坂の
城にのかれゆく長勝福塚【束とあるところ】の城にありて桑名大垣の道

これを聞いて関東の御方(徳川方)として本国に馳せ上り、大坂の軍勢が当国に攻め下ると聞こえたので、その勢力はわずか六百人で今尾の城に立て籠もった。市橋の分際はそのようなものであろう。東国の敵が破れれば降人として参るであろうと言って、伊藤・丸毛の勢力が藤川の前に陣を取って攻めるにも及ばず、長勝は城より討って出て、水を挟んで矢戦に日を暮らし、敵陣に夜討ちをして散々に戦ったので、寄せ手は堪えられず福岡の城に入った。長勝は続いて攻めたところ、城もついに落とされて大坂の城に逃れていく。長勝は福束の城にあって桑名・大垣の道を差し塞ぎ、大垣の城下より押し入って番の兵十七人の首を

切って献上した。戦争が終わった後、長勝の功績は少なからずということで恩賞が行われ《割書:本領と新恩の地を合わせて二万石を充て行われる》、慶長十三年伯耆国矢橋城に移された。同十九年大坂の軍が起こった時馳せ上って城を攻め、再び軍が起こった時は自分の所領星田村に陣を取って大御所の御陣を控え、また仰せを承って手の者に彼の城を守らせた。元和二年の夏大御所が隠れなさった時、仰せ置かれた御旨によって越後国三条城に多くの地を付けて長勝に下し賜った。これは大坂の戦功を賞されたゆえと聞いている《割書:四万千三百石》。年六十四歳にして同じく六年三月十七日に死去し、家を継ぐべき男子がなかったので、その甥長政に家を継がせられた。下総守長政《割書:実は林右衛門某の子》は初め

Hearing this, he rushed back to his home province as a supporter of the Kantō side (Tokugawa faction), and when it was reported that Osaka forces were attacking down into the province, his forces numbered only six hundred men who barricaded themselves in Imao Castle. Such was the extent of Ichihashi's position. Saying that if the eastern enemies were defeated, he would surely come as a surrendering retainer, the forces of Itō and Maruge took position in front of Fujikawa, but before they could attack, Nagakatsu sallied forth from the castle, spent the day in arrow warfare across the water, and launched night attacks on the enemy camp, fighting fiercely. The besieging forces could not withstand this and withdrew to Fukuoka Castle. When Nagakatsu continued his attacks, the castle was finally captured and [the defenders] fled to Osaka Castle. Nagakatsu remained at Fukutsuka Castle, blocking the roads to Kuwana and Ōgaki, pushed into the castle town of Ōgaki, and cut off the heads of seventeen guard soldiers,

which he presented [to his lord]. After the war ended, Nagakatsu's achievements were considered substantial, and rewards were granted {{marginal note: combining his original domain with new grants totaling 20,000 koku}}. In Keichō 13, he was transferred to Yabashi Castle in Hōki Province. In the same 19th year when Osaka forces rose up, he rushed up to attack the castle, and when forces rose up again, he set up camp in his own domain at Hoshida Village to support the Ōgosho's camp, and following orders, had his men defend that castle. In the summer of Genna 2, when the Ōgosho passed away, according to the wishes he had left behind, many lands attached to Sanjō Castle in Echigo Province were granted to Nagakatsu. This was heard to be a reward for his military achievements at Osaka {{marginal note: 41,300 koku}}. At the age of sixty-four, he died on the seventeenth day of the third month of the same sixth year. Having no male heir to succeed the family, his nephew Nagamasa was made to inherit the family line.
