for D1, the Siege of Nagashino Castle, I don't think it's the Torii gates they're protecting. I think it refers to Torii Suneemon, an ashigaru who became famous for his sacrifice at Nagashino Castle. The 'Torii' in his name, 鳥居, is the same as the Torii of the Shinto gate, but it would make more sense for the expedition to be referring to Torii Suneemon. He snuck across the sieging Takeda forces to get to Ieyasu & Nobunaga and inform them that Nagashino Castle needed reinforcements, so the expedition is probably to protect him and make sure he succeeds in that journey.
