Battle of Azukizaka (1564)



The second battle of Azukizaka took place in 1564, when Tokugawa Ieyasu sought to combat the growing threat of the IkkĹŤ-ikki, a sect of warrior monks who were strongly against samurai rule. The Ikki consisted of samurai, monks, and peasants, many of whom were vassals of Tokugawa.
