Takamoto: "Father, we are in position! How about your distraction?"
Motonari: "Done."
Takamoto: "But you are marching everything to my side. Wouldn't this attract the enemy over?"
Motonari: "As long as we leave at least 1 unit on the same side of their original deployement, they will not move."
Takamoto: "So... one Light cavalry grabbing the attention of 2/3 of the defenders?"
Motonari: "Yep. Now keep shooting from that weakness spot!"
Note: The Citadel is in the shape of:
w = water
c = citadel
b = blind spot

The blind spots are quite small, holding one unit max. Here our Bow unit can fire safely without being shot at arrow towers. The defenders tend to parade inside the Citadel just like any castle. From time to time, we will have one defending unit stopping right in front of our Bow Ashigaru. 3 volleys! Fire arrows' power seems to have been increased by the 5346 patch, too.
