Early in the morning (reportedly around four o'clock) on June 2, the troops of the Akechi clan (Mitsuhide had not yet entered Kyoto and he arrived at Honno-ji Temple at nine o'clock; some regard these troops as mysterious as their commander is unknown) completely surrounded Honno-ji Temple.
6月2日早朝（4時ごろとする説あり）、明智軍（光秀はこの時、京都にも入っておらず、本能寺到着は9時。指揮した者が不明の謎の軍団とする説もある）は本能寺を完全に包囲した。
