  Oda Nobunaga - Encyclopedia, History, Geography and Biography
At the Battle of Anegawa, Nobunaga and Tokugawa Ieyasu defeated the combined forces of the Asakura and Azai clans.
However, after the battle, the Takeda forces retreated as Shingen died of illness (or perhaps, as it had been speculated, of aggravated wounds or at the hand of an assassin) in 1573.
At the decisive Battle of Nagashino, the combined forces of Nobunaga and Tokugawa Ieyasu devastated the Takeda clan with the strategic use of muskets.

 Wikipedia: Battle of Mikatagahara
Battle of Mikatagahara was fought in 1572 in Japan.

Ieyasu took about 11,000 men (3,000 of them Oda Nobunaga's troops) out to meet Shingen in battle.

 Masaru Fujimoto, Volleys that rang the death knell of an age
In the battle, Ieyasu himself was almost killed, and is said to have been so scared that he defecated in his pants while in the saddle—but did not realize until he had fled back to his castle stronghold in Hamamatsu (Shizuoka Prefecture).
Although the Battle of Mikatagahara itself was a one-sided victory for Shingen, the Nobunaga-Ieyasu coalition forces lucked out in a big way when Shingen fell ill soon after, then died as his army headed back to their home base of Tsutsujigasaki Castle in Kofu (Yamanashi Prefecture) rather than continuing their advance on Kyoto.
Though the battle was fought on May 21, on the current calendar that would have been July 9—which is right in the middle of the rainy season.

 Daimyos/leaders in battle - The Guild
Thus, there must be someone leading from the rear, preferably from a hill where he can see the battle, in order to organize the use of reinforcements etc. This is a natural task for the overall commander of the army, who almost always is the highest-ranking daimyô present.
Thus, at Sekigahara, while Ieyasu surveyed the battle from his HQ, his most high-ranking retainers (Ii, Honda etc.) were at the front lines, commanding their troops (and the Red Devil was actually wounded spearheading a charge).
Running off to join a battle put this responsibility to risk, as he would both be giving up overall control of the battle (his situational awareness and ability to react to threats beyond those of his person) and also endangering himself.

 Sumo Fan Magazine
When Tenryu made his dohyo debut at the January 1920 basho, he initially took the shikona Mikatagahara, after a famous battlefield near his birthplace.
In retrospect, Mikatagahara turned out to be an apt name for the young man with a mixed future as it was the winner of the Battle of Mikatagahara (a battle that conceivably could have altered Japanese history), Shingen Takeda, that proved to have a life somewhat mirroring Tenryu’s own career in sumo.
Despite having been aided by troops from his ally, Nobunaga Oda, Ieyasu lost the battle and barely escaped with his life but Takeda, although buoyed by the victory, was himself felled – by tuberculosis – at the time he was making preparations to make his final assault.
