To the north of the Oda was the Saito clan.
As mentioned earlier in regard to the Saito, Saito Dosan being the father in law of Nobunaga as mentioned earlier, had died after his adopted son had launched a coup and landed the Saito dominion into turmoil.
One Saito general, Ogasawara or the 'Tiger of Unuma', was worried and asked the garrison on the Saito side of the river why they hadn't attacked and they simply laughed at him and explained why but the Tiger of Unuma wasn't sure and very angry at being laughed at.

With it being sure, two years before this battle, although Dosan had conveyed the headship of the family to Yoshitastu (he introduced himself as Toshihisa those days), probably it is though that this sudden retirement was performed compulsorily by the vassal team (influential persons in the territory).
Dosan side which was inferior in the number was beaten and most soldiers were killed in this war (the battle of Nagara-gawa).
Dosan himself was also killed on April 20 in he middle way of escapiing.

Though the head of the Oda clan, Nobuhide never fully united Owari Province but was involved in open warfare as he was fronted to the north by Saito Dosan, daimyo of Mino province, and to the east by Imagawa Yoshimoto, the daimyo of Mikawa, Suruga, and Totomi provinces.
In 1549, Nobuhide made peace with Saito Dosan by arranging a political marriage between son Nobunaga and Saito's daughter.
Almost all support of Nobunaga that would have been had from Nobuhide's retainers went to younger brother Oda Nobuyuki, leaving Nobunaga with Hirate Masahide and his father-in-law Saito Dosan, whom he had never met before.

 Saito Dosan - Wikipedia Mirror   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
Around 1555 or so, rumors began to circulate that Saito Yoshitatsu wasn't in fact Dosan's son - that he was Yoshinari's.
Another theory holds that Yoshitatsu simply assumed that he would be disinherited, and decided to move first.
Other names of Saito Dosan are Minemaru (峰丸), Horenbo (法蓮坊), Matsunami Shogoro (松浪庄五郎), Nishimura Kankuro Masatoshi (西村勘九郎正利), Shinkuro (新九郎), Nagai Norihide (長井規秀), and Saito Sakondayu Toshimasa (斎藤左近大夫利政).

 nobunaga\'s wife - The Guild
Nobunaga's wife was a daughter of Saito Toshimasa (Dosan) and was known as Ouhime and Kichou.
That Dosan fell for Nobunaga's tricks may be due to the fact that, ostensibly, relations between Dosan and his son-in-law were fair to good.
After Saito Dosan's death in 1556, Kichou's usefullness to Nobunaga was much diminished and her spying was now held against her.

 Oda Nobunaga - SamuraiWiki
Saito Toshimasa (Dosan) (1494-1556) was a colorful figure, a former oil-merchant (if tradition is to be believed) who supplanted the Toki family of Mino.
As just noted, Saito Yoshitatsu was the new lord of Mino, having killed Dosan at the Battle of Nagaragawa (1556), and he was no friend to the Oda.
By bribing away key Saito generals, Nobunaga was able to weaken the defenses of Mino and in 1567 he attacked Inabayama, the headquarters of the Saito clan.

She was married to him in 1549, during a truce between Nobunaga's father, Nobuhide and Saito Dosan.
On top of this, it was alleged that Nouhime was acting as a spy, or even assassin, for her father; it is worthy to note that at that time it was not an uncommon practice for a wife to relay information to her maiden family.
In 1556, Dosan, Nouhime's father, was killed in a coup in Mino Province.

Oda Nobunaga's connection to Gifu City began with the arranged marriage, when he was 16, to the daughter of the Saito Dosan, the daimyo of what was then known as Mino province, now a part of Gifu prefecture.
The castle was reportedly rebuilt in 1509 and changed hands a few times in the 1500's, including to Saito Dosan and Saito Yoshitatsu, before Oda Nobunaga passed the castle on to his sons when he moved on to Azuchi.
When one of those sons, Oda Hidenobu, was defeated and the castle was captured by forces on the side of Tokugawa Ieyasu in the struggle for the shogun title that culminated in the Battle of Sekigahara in 1600, the castle was burned to the ground and prohibited from reconstruction.

 Osprey Publishing - Samurai Commanders (2)
The greatest threat to the survival of the Oda domain had been posed by Imagawa Yoshimoto, so the battle of Okehazama was as significant for the Oda family on a personal scale as it was for Japan as a whole.
Like his father Nobuhide before him, Nobunaga enthusiastically embraced new military technology, which he famously displayed on the occasion of a visit to his future father-in-law Saito Dosan in 1553.
Saito Dosan was much impressed, and, somewhat ironically, out of all of Nobunaga’s future military conquests, the most significant was to be the taking of Inabayama (Gifu) castle from Saito Dosan’s grandson in 1567.

 History
Nobuhide counter-attacked with such zeal that he drove the Dosan forces back almost to their mountain redoubt at Inabayama Castle (now Gifu Castle on Kinkazan mountain).
However, both warlords had left their rear areas unprotected so that Dosan was threatened by the Asakura clan and Nobuhide was open to attack from the east by the Imagawa clan.
Nobuhide, after settling the terms of peace with Dosan, turned to strengthen his defenses against incursions by the Imagawa clan from the east by constructing a fortress at Suemori on the east side of Nagoya.

 Saito Dosan, True Rags to Riches
Quite possibly one of the most astonishing persons of the Sengoku period, Saito Dosan rose from no where to become Daimyo of the province of Mito.
In 1533 the plot succeeded and he was made a samurai as a reward, was given duty guarding a castle, and in 1538 took on the name Saito.
However, in 1542 he attacked his former patron and expelled him from the province and so, at the age of 46, the ex-apprentice monk was warlord and daimyo of the Mito province.

As noted earlier, Saito Dosan was a shrewd daimyo who allied with Oda Nobunaga, so an invasion of his province would have been difficult as well.
However, by the end of the 1550's Dosan was overthrown by his son, Yoshitatsu, who wasn't quite as skilled as his father.

This was Iezane's first time to actually command an army, and he was obviously nervous and excited.
(We belive that this is not the famous Saito Toshimasa who later became Saito Dosan (see here), the father-in-law of Oda Nobunaga.) Mori Motonari himself was responsible for the attack of Bitchu.
The result in Nagato was the same as Saito in Aki two seasons ago - the 120 enemy army retreated on the battlefield.

Poco después de esta boda política, Hideyoshi derrotó en Inabayama a Saito Tatsuoki, por lo que Nobunaga encontraba ya expedito su camino hacia Kyoto.
