longer and curved than the katana) hanging from it. He carries a yari "lance"

Until the middle of the 16th
century, the common orga-
nization of samurai
army was almost the same:
‘at the end of the cam-
paigns, the army was dis-
solved and the vast
majority of the ashigaru
and some samurai re-
turned to their work in the
fields. It was not until the
Sengoku period that some
well-resourced doimyd
maintained a stable army

There were alo ashigary dedicated to serving

period, all samurai were expected tobe ready
to appear on the battlefield with their respec-
five weapons, armor and horse atthe time of
conflict, In addition, it was desired that each
one provide troops at the service of his lord
‘according to the wealth of the fiefdom to which
they belonged. In this way the recruitment of
the necessary troops fell to the samurai.
‘The latter brought with them other samurai or
laborers who left their lands to become
oshigoru.
