The Jingbirok a memoir of imjin war

you said you would reorganize in dongpa but you retreated here to gaeseong

you have to cross imjingang again and reorganize there

dongpa is too close to the enemy

i told you not to interfere with my command of the army

i'm not interfering i'm giving you advice

kato kiyomasa who was in hamgyeong-do is coming south

kato kiyomasa?

they're gathering in hanyang

if you give them time a large army will gather

it will be more difficult to recover hanyang

how can you sure he's headed to hanyang?

i think he will attack pyeongyang

their main camp is in hanyang

hanyang is in danger

there is no reason for them to go to pyeongyang

if they occupy pyeongyang and attack us from north and south we'll be in trouble

then you should attack hanyang and eliminate the possibility of a joint attack

no we have to defend pyeongyang first

vice commander zu prepare to go to pyeongyang

yes sir

you cant do that

get him out of here

yes sir

general

you have to go hanyang

you have to go hanyang general

general

sir

gwon yul moved his army to haenjusanseong

we're in trouble

if the soldiers here dont attack together haengjusanseong will be in danger

we wont advance to hanyang?

i have to see song yingchang

hanyang

haengjusanseong?

they want to make a joint attack when li rusong attacks us?

that's right

gwon yul stopped us at ichi from going south

yes he's not an easy match

how many in the army?

4000 at haengjusanseong,4000 at geumcheon and 1000 on the path between

haenjusanseong and geumcheon

there are a total of 9000

9000...where is the ming army?

they are in gaeseong

it doesnt look like they'll advance here yet

good

konishi we have to crush haengjusanseong before li rusong returns to hanyang

of course we defeated them at byeokjegwan

if we can occupy haengjusanseong too

the tables will turn again

gaeseong and hanyang arent that far apart

if the enemy comes down while we attack we will be in danger

that's why we have to make it quick

we will all attack and sweep them away in one day

i will command this battle myself

we must win and gain the upper hand

is that understood?

yes sir

if we werent defeated at byeokjegwan we would have already recovered hanyang

we lost 1500 cavalry soldiers and horses

we lost five generals including ma qianzong and li yousheng

if we fail at attacking hanyang the tables will truly turn

the talks that we had control of will also be lost

chief administrator this is the last chance to hold peace talks

be quiet

the emperor told me to defeat wae not hold peace talks

then you can defeat them

but you dont have to do that with military force

it has been our long custom to refrom barbarains and establish good-neighbor policies

think of only the benefits to ming

the emperor will praise your high if you can defeat the enemy without shedding the blood of our soldiers

this is a report of the joseon army

the joseon army in the south moved to haengjusanseong?

yes

that's very close to hanyang

it means the joseon army intends to attack from this side when we attack hanyang

i warned them they moved an army without discussing it with us?

i'm sure it was planned by ryu seongryong the supreme commander of three provinces

ryu seongryong?

he is a dangerous man who is trying to run the joseon army independently

he wont accept our command?

the joseon army has to be crushed at haengjusanseong for them to listen to us

that's right

sir

someone named ryu seongryong is here to see you

li rusong headed to pyeongyang?

please have them return

we are about to recover hanyang

he cant go to pyeongyang

he said konishi yukinaga could attack pyeongyang

there is no possibility of that

if they lose hanyang they lose their main base

why would they attack pyeongyang instead of defending hanyang?

please tell them to advance to hanyang

give me some time to think about it

there's no time for that

why?

because the joseon army at haengjusanseong is waiting for us to attack?

how did you...

we arent just watching the wae army

we're watching every move you make too

who gave such an order without discussing it with ming?

regardless of anyone's order it's someone any joseon soldier could think of doing

it's a good thing you found out

please order general li to advance to hanyang

i should

but not now

we suffered too much damage at byeokjegwan

we need time to reorganize

sir

tell the joseon army near hanyang not to collide with the wae army

wait for our order

sir

how did it go?

i'm going to get all the soldiers at haengjusanseong killed i am

what will i do?

haengjusanseong

the wooden barricades were set up Jo Gyeong(assistant general)

do you think they'll attack us first?

if i was them i would attack first to eliminate future trouble

why isnt there any news of the ming army coming?

ryu seongryong went to meet song yingchang

he will come with a large army

he has to

tell all the soldiers to prepare sacks of ash to throw in the eyes of the enemy

when they run out of weapons

send another messenger to ryu seongryong

yes sir

hanyang

konishi

yes

take the lead and attack as soon as the sun rises

yes sir

sir

is the ming army coming?

no the wae army left the capital

they're headed this way

how large an army?

it looks to be over 30000

they want to end it with one attack?

let ryu seongryong know right away

wake all the soldiers

yes sir

let me know it it's not enough

yes sir

what?song yingchang wont give the order?

the loss at byeokjegwan seems to have had an affect

please ask him yourself

would that help?

you have to make it work

if you dont all our soldiers at haengjusanseong will be slaughtered

is anyone outside?

yes your majesty

have song yingchang come now

yes your majesty

you dont know?

where did he go at this late hour?

how should i know?

he said he quitely wanted to make plans

he should return soon just wait

this is no time to wait

tell me where is he?

i'm not the great jade emperor

how should i know?

they should know better than to make independent moves

but attacking haengjusanseong from the side isnt a bad idea

we should attack hanyang

dont act rash

i heard the horses didnt fully recover from the fight at byeokjegwan

reorganize the armyv

if the joseon army is crushed at haengjusanseong the joseon court will wake up

we just have to make a move for ming

it's helpful for thr joseon army that's good

if it's not too bad

but the emperor

the emperor the emperor the emperor

the emperor told me to defeat the war army

he didnt say they had to be killed with spears and swords

the joseon army has to be controlled for you to command them properly understood?

yes

what?song yingchang disappeared?

yes i sent people to all the places he might have gone to

but he just disappeared

what will we do?

our soldiers are all going to be annihilated

how about sending kim myeongwon and his army to haengjusanseong?

how can you suggest that?

ming is avoiding us because we moved an army without telling them

you want to remove soldiers who are under ming's control?

do you want them to turn their backs on us?

i'm only saying this because they already turned their backs on us

we have to save the lives of our soldiers at haengjusanseong

forget it this isnt right

we shouldnt have upset ming

what are you going to do now?

you have to settle this matter

go to gaeseong and collect all the arrows at the nearby government buildings

move them to the government building in gaeseong

are you going to send them to haenjusanseong?

yes

haenjusanseong can be reached by boat

it would be faster to move them by boat

that's a good idea

send word to lee bin to have a boat ready

yes sir

assistant general what do you think the possibility of us winning is?

well at least ten percent

then it's half and half

it was like that at ichi

everyone said we didnt have a chance but we won

whether it's 10 percent or 90 percent it's just a possibility

the only result is winning or losing

i'm going to bet on winning

you should too

you will feel much better that way

sir

it wont be easy because they set up barricades

we cant make it last long

just keep pushing

konishi

what?

the enemy is 30000 in number

a messenger just came

what will we do?

are we just to send arrows?

it's all my fault

i was too anxious i...

gather all the soldiers in the complex

i should go

i should go to haengjusanseong and fight

let's go

sir

there's no time let's go

snap out of it what's wrong with you?

you are the supreme commander of three provinces

if anything happens to you what will happen to our country?

wake up

go go now

move

i told you to move

i wont move

shells bigyeokjincheolloes and arrows

we have nothing left

what about the supreme commander?

there is no word

they're moving stones knowing we ran out of shells and arrows

if there is any food left give it all to the soldiers and citizens

when they get their breath back a full-force attack will be made

yes sir

cant you even attack a fortress?

the ming army must know that we left hanyang empty

there's no time never mind about a leading attack or a main camp

everyone will attack at once

the enemy used up all their weapons

they are unarmed

if you cant defeat them now you will all have to drown in hangang

is that understood?

yes sir

they're finally coming

did you eat well?

yes i considered it to be the last meal of this battle and ate well

the last meal?dont say that

we might have a late dinner tonight

i hope so

sir

general lee bin brought tens of thousands of arrows

is this true?

sir

it's not too late it's fortunate Lee bin(commander of gyeonggi)

welcome commander

we have to end it this time

everyone attack

attack

dont retreat

i will kill everyone who retreats!

attack

sweep them all away

they penetrated the wooden barricades

dont retreat attack

is he the leader?

it seems so

fire at him

yes sir

attack

dont retreat attack

now shoot

shoot

ukita

dont retreat attack

prepare for close combat

yes sir

ukita

general

let's retreat

it's a signal to retreat

i know

darn

yoshitoshi

retreat

the enemy retreated

it's a huge victory

are you alright?

on february 12 1593 the japanese army made a total of seven attacks

they failed to occupt haengjusanseong and withdrew to hanyang

it was a huge victory that was achieved when the joseon army was inferior in number and weapons

it was even more meaningful because it was a victory achieved without the help of the ming army

the japanese army regained confidence at byeokjegwan but cowered largely after the defeat at haengjusanseong

it becomes a chance for the japanese army to actively participate in peace talks

thank you god

thank you

hanyang

ukita...we dont have many rations left

we wont be able to handle it if joseon and ming make a joint attack

darn

what should we do?

you should seek peace talks

accept the land south of hangang as ours and end the war

will joseon accept that?

joseon wont

but we wont be negotiating with joseon

we will be negotiating with ming

cant you tell their attitude change a lot since they were defeated at byeokjegwan?

if they intended to fight they would have attacked us since we were defeated at haenjusanseong

that's true

i'll reach out to shen weijing

fine make contact

yes sir

they want to negotiate?

yes they suffered much damage at haengjusanseong

i didnt expect the joseon army to win

what should we do?

we're at an advantage anyway

it wouldnt be bad to meet them

they will want land

the land they occupied

tell them to withdraw from hanyang

they have to gain something to withdraw

we have to tell them how much we're willing to give them

what do you think?

i think they will accept hasamdo (gyeongsang-do,jeolla-do,chungcheong-do)

fine tell them i'll report to the emperor

what should i tell the joseon court?

i'm sorry i'll say you went to suggest they retreat

joseon will be happy if the japanese army retreats

tell them they must not fight during the talks or kill any enemies

understood

the contents of the talks must not be known to the joseon court

understood

before that

ryu seongryong...

remove him from the joseon court

left commander of the jeolla naval district government buidling in paju gyeonggi-do

i'm sure you heard

its fortunate we won at haengjusanseong but i looked back on us a lot

by relying on the ming army we almost lost 10000 of our soldiers

did you just ask me to advance to hanyang?

yes the joseon army achieved a huge victory at haengjusanseong

the enemy was damaged a lot

there cant be a better time to recover hanyang

what are you talking about?

i'm so mad

what are you talking about?

you should congratulate us why are you mad?

who approved of that battle?

i have command of the joseon army

i never gave such an order

listen

was it a battle that can only be fought with an order?

the enemy attacked it's a matter of course to prevent the fortress

what's wrong with that?

do you think i'm a fool?

why would the enemy have attacked if gwon yul's army was in suwon?

someone ordered his army to go to haengju

that's why a battle occurred there

the chief administrator even knows this

whoever gave the order we achieved a huge victory and are at an advantage

that's a good thing

will the war end because you won a battle at haengjusanseong?

what's more important is military structure and military rules

how can i trust anyone and lead the allied forces?

who gave the order?

was it you?

i dont know anything about it

then it must have been the supreme commander of three provinces ryu seongryong

he wouldnt have done that without your approval

he interferes all the time

he's prefectly capable of doing that

remove him from office right away
