Therefore, until the end of 1573, Ishiyama Hongan-ji Temple and Nobunaga were checking each other although there were no actual battles between them, and their relationship during this period may be described as 'a little more peaceful than the cold war.' したがって1573年末までは、石山本願寺と信長は互いに牽制しつつも戦火を交えない、いわば冷戦よりややましな程度で推移していたと思われる。 |
