The Jingbirok a memoir of imjin war
catch him catch him
hey what are you doing?
are you a government official too?
sir
hey
step back or we'll kill you
let's go
come on let's go
sir are you alright?sir
sir
i'm alright
find out what's going on
yes yes sir
let's go before the officials come
hurry up
come on
let's go before the officials come
who are you?
are you the officials of jeongju?
yes who are you?
i serve the lord of pungwon ryu seongryong
i'm shin myeongcheol
he's at the governement building
he was people plundering crops
what's going on?
dont even talk about it
when they heard wae occopied pyeongyang and his majesty took refuge the people all turned into rioters
it isnt just jeongju
a thousand sacks of military rations in gasan were taken
the military rations in sunsan sukcheon anju yeongyeon and bakcheon were all taken too
that's over 2000 sacks of military rations
how did it end up like this?
it's because the people think they have to hide in the mountatins for a long time
the problem is there arent any government officials to stop them
most of them were drafted for battle and over half of the ones who remained fled
there are only about fifteen of them outside
how will they stop hundreds of rioters?
we need to get those military rations back
it's rice that will save our country
there arent any soldiers
how are we to capture them and get the rice back?
it's a fight between hoodlums at the market we could just get to the leader and they would surrender
but they're hiding right now
oh boy
really
i'm good at going after one person
even if there are hundreds of rioters there must be a leader
he's a villager you must know him
yes he's a butcher named bau
chilseong and yeongchul serve him
three
is there a storage that still has crops?
do you think there would be?
fill rice sacks with straw
let's lure them and catch the leader
yes sir
tell them
if you dont i'll use my knife
everyone it's me bau
bring the rice back to the government building
they wont execute us if we go now
if we dont go now we'll all be killed
bring the rice right now
if you dont come i'll have to give them your names
government building in jeongju
if the country is in danger you should think of fighting for the country
how can you steal military rations?
dont you know it's the same thing as kiling our soldiers?
sir you said you would spare us
i said i would spare you did i say i wouldnt punish you?
you should be punished if you did wrong
you will be flogged a hundred times
sir that will kill us
how is that different from an execution?
please spare us
there is one way
what is it?
we'll do anything
we dont have enough men
we cant move 2000 sacks of rice here from gwiseong
can you move them here?
we'll do it we'll do it sir
we'll do it
yeongbyeon bunjo(temporary court)
he's using the refugees to move rations?
yes crown prince
he is the lord of pungwon indeed
their crime wasnt light
if they are forgiven this easily i'm worried the people will take plundering of military rations lightly
the few leaders should be executed and their heads should be hung up for display
no it's the royal family and court that made them commit such acts
if anyone is to be punished we should be punished first
the people are being killed by wae soldiers and starving to death
do they have to be killed by us too?
we dont qualify to kill them
tell the lord to comfort them well
crown prince rioters are rebels
shouldnt we report this to his majesty?
this is the joseon court
we dont have to report it
do as i say
yes crown prince
seonjo insisted on dividing the court He left gwanghae in yeongbyeon
he passed through bakcheon jeongju ssoncheon and yongcheon and
arrived in uiju the nothern border area near amnokgang on lunar june 22
ryu seongryong secured 3000 sacks of military rations (Temporary quarters in uiju)
i heard rioters stole the rations
how did he secure 3000 sacks?
he suppressed the rioters and convinced them to return the military rations
were they executed?
they were forgiven and used to move the military rations in gwiseong to
jeongju and gasan
the rioters werent executed?
those military rations were food for the ming soldiers who will save this country
anyone who stole it is a traitor
who is he to spare their lives?
please calm down
its a serious crime to steal the military rations
but giving them a chance to make up for that and using them as resources was
a truly excellent solution
at least have the leaders executed
send a liaison officer now
your majesty
when the country is in chaos the weight of the national laws have to be shown
send a liaison officer
the crown prince already gave an order not to punish the rioters
what?he did that without asking me?
how bold of him
withdraw that order and relay my order
your majesty you left all national matters to the crown prince
if you give another order bunjo will lose authority
right i left national matters to him
i forgot
the king of this country is the crown prince
how can you say such a thing?
this is why i said you shouldnt divide the court
no no no
i ruined the country
i dont qualify to be the king
the crown prince will do a good job
your majesty
your majesty the vice commander of yodong zu chengxun just arrived in uiju with
5000 soldiers for reinforcement
is this true?
hurray for joseon
june 19 1592
5000 soldiers led by the vice commander of yodong zu chengxun crossed amnokgang
that was 70 days after war broke out
there was civil war in ming but the fact they only sent 5000 soldiers
as an elite army meant they didnt know how powerful the wae army was
ming joining the war became a turning point
the war turned into one of the three countries of northeast asia
i'm the vice commander of yodong zu chengxun
the emperor ordered me to come here and save joseon
welcome general i waited for you for a long time
heaven hasnt abandoned this country yet
the emperor hasnt forgotten our country
the wae army will fun when they see the army you brought
how will i repay you for this?
no need
ming and joseon are like brothers
its natural that we help each other
thank you thank you very much
bring it
bring it now
what is this?
the emperor gave 20000 nyangs of silver
hang in there
open it
your majesty
i will head to pyeongyangseong right away
no no you came a long way
you should rest a bit i will prepare a banquet
get some rest with your soldiers
no i'm not thirsty for wine
i'm thirsty for the heads of wae soldiers
i will go and recover the fortress
hold a banquet for me at pyeongyangseong
general
let's go to war
yes sir
general
did you hear any other news?
what news?
i...no never mind
you should go
i wish you luck
i would like to reward you with silver cups for escorting the royal carriage this far
100 nynags to the ministers and 50 nyangs to the officials eunchs
and royal guards
5 nynags to the servants too
thank you your majesty
thank you very much
but we cant accept the silver
keep it well and reward it to the soldiers who achieve merit in this war
yes your majesty everything is lacking
if you give to the soldiers it will help enhance morale
there is plenty of silver
i will reward the generals and soldiers who achieve merit later on
if you want to give it to us send it to bunjo to settle public sentiments and encourage soldiers
yes your majesty
bunjo is serving the ancestral tablets
give the crown prince some support
how can we accept silver when we turned the country into this state?
i think it should be sent to the crown prince to be used an national expenses
it isnt time yet
bunjo doesnt have any activities or merits
they could become lax if i reward silver first
i will decide after i see what merits are achieved by bunjo
your majesty you left all the national matters to the crown prince
it is bunjo that needs fiancing not us
please send them some silver
listen
i might have left national affairs to the crown prince but until i reach yodong
this place with me and the queens is the court
i didnt say anything but people like ryu seongryong are aleady ignoring me
he only reported to bunjo about the military rations
are you ignoring me too?
is bunju the only court?
that's not what we mean
bunjo needs power and authority to overcome the national crisis
forget it dont accept it then
governement building in jeongju pyeongan-do
sir
the reinforcements from ming left uiju and are headed this way
they're finally here
how many?
5000
5000...5000
we're in trouble
we only have enough rations for 3 days
sir
asanchang sent 1200 sacks of rice as tax
tax?heaven is helping us
it's a good thing the enemy didint occupy chungheong-do and jeolla-do
divide up the rice
move 200 sacks to jeongju 200 to gasan and 800 to anju
they cant run out of military rations where there are reinforcements
yes sir
the rioters will suffer quite a bit
they're paying a lot for what they did
i thought it would be hard to secure military rations
i'm surprised at how well you prepared
you came a long way to help us
we shouldnt neglect you
we only have 3-4 days worth of ration
we're seeking measures
dont worry
we have 100000 sacks of rations
where?
at pyeongyangseong
general
we'll recover pyeongyangseong soon
those rations will be ours
i'm sure you heard
the matchlocks used by the wae army are very powerful
you shouldnt take them lightly
he is right
i experienced them myself
the matchlocks only have a firing distance of a hundred strides but we have cannos that can destroy
the enemy from a thousand strides
the matchlock is nothing compared to our cannons
what?
the king of joseon wants to take refuge in yodong?
yes your majesty
i sent zu chengxun and soldiers
i even sent plenty of silver
why is he so afraid?
zu chengxun only has an army of 5000 compared to the large army of wae
he might be nervous because of that
what are you talking about?
we have cannons and the soldiers of yodong can fight one against a hundred
once bobai's insurrection is suppressed i will send li rusong
he's probably worried he might be captured before that
he's so weak
he's busy fleeing from the wae army
he's the king of a country but he has no guts
i dont like him
people get weak in times of great trouble
please understand
were you a joseon person in your former life?
you're always siding with joseon
what's wrong with you?
what is it?
when your concubine was sold a joseon inspector saved her right?
if it wasnt for joseon you wouldnt have met her
your majesty
fine fine tell him to come
thank you your majesty
but have him stay in an empty government complex in kuandian bastion (Kuandianxian of manchuria)
what?that's pretty shabby place
it's also dangerous because of the jurchens
he will feel humiliated
you should just tell him not to come
i'm telling him not to come
he wouldnt if he had the least pride
tell him what i said
your majesty
a person should feel humilated and overcome it to become stronger
your majesty thank you for the silver (temporary quarters in uiju)
i feel sorry that i'm making the queens suffer
oh no you showed consideration for me in this difficult situation
i dont know what to say
i will use it well
well?how will you spend it?
will you buy rice for the refugees?
or will you buy salt and medicinal herbs for them?
that's good use of the silver in the current situation
what did you do with your silver?
i sent it to the crown prince
what?the crown prince?
it's not a lot but i sent it so he could use it for military expenses
that's the good use i found for it
listen
why are you so indifferent to him?
you loved gongbin at one time
he is her son
he is the crown prince who you left national affairs to
he is serving the former kings and this country
you should help him
stop it
i'm waiting to see how he does
i'm not being indifferent
dont interfere with my politics
your majesty
i'm sorry it's my fault
i wasnt thinking
i will give the silver i received to the refugees
what's wrong with you?
no her highness is right
please give your approval
do what you want
your majesty the inspector-general returned from yodong
he did?
i'm glad you're back
what was the answer from ming?
i'm sorry but
go ahead and tell me
the emperor approved of you coming but he said you should stay in
an empty government building in
did you say an empty governement building in kuandian bastion?
yes your majesty
that's the front line of defense against the jurchens
you must have heard wrong
check again
i checked several times
i'm really supposed to stay in kuandian bastion?
yes your majesty
how can ming do this to us?
we served ming with etiquette and all our hearts
we might be in a tough situation but he wants me to stay in
a governement building where barbarians might attack at any time?
they cant do this
they cant
your majesty they are showing contempt
this is better
dont leave the country
fight for your life here
rather than being choked with sorrow as someone seeking asylum
wouldnt it be better to fight with our governement officials?
that's right your majesty
reinforcements are here from ming
according to a report from the national defense council
in jeolla-do gwon yul is reorganizing the army and joining forces with the righteous troops
yi sunsin is rulling the ocean
in gyeongsang-do gwak jaeu defeated wae soldiers headed to jeolla-do
you have nothing to fear
dont be too disappointed
i didnt know ming would be so cold
forget about it
i was worried
if you went to yodong and stayed there for a long time the servants and people would have
followed the crown prince as the king
this could be a sign from heaven for you to maintain your power
abolish bunjo and get back all authority for national affairs
i wont go to yodong
thank you your majesty
i wasnt comfortable about going there
i will take the lead in overcoming this national crisis
i'm going to unite the court again
your majesty that isnt a wise decision
that's right your majesty
since i'm not going to yodong isnt it a matter of course to unite the court?
of course
it's only been 10 days since the court was split up
if you unite it again the soldiers and people will fall into great confusion
keep it divided and encourage the officials and people with both courts
the councilor is right
we are facing a dangerous situation
it isnt wise for both of you to be together
even if one side faces difficulty the other can take on national affairs
having separate royal orders can cause confusion in national affairs
the court was divided with a premise that i go to yodong
it should be united again
it is a matter of course for you to take on national affairs but you already gave the crown prince
the task of settling public sentiments and driving out the wae army
it wont be helpful at all in overcoming this crisis to call the crown prince here
that's right your majesty
you gave him a task see how he does
if he doesnt do a good job you can unite the court then
the court will naturally be united when you return to the capital
you should wait until then
i agree
i agree too
fine
but i will decide the important national matters
yes your majesty
nagoya
the maritime supply route was cut off
they didnt occupy jeolla-do the grain belt
what are they doing over there?
surprises always exist
did you send the vessels in tsushima to wakisaka?
yes they should have arrived in busan about now
wakisaka will have a total of seventy vessels
he'll settle this for sure
why do you trust him so much?
i know him
he is one of the seven generals who achieved merit at the battle of shizugatake
but he knows that kato and fukushima dont recognize him much
maeda you dont recognize him as one of the seven generals either right?
he doesnt have a high a reputation or skills as kato or fukushima
that's why he'll fight even harder
wakisaka will definitely bring me yi sunsin's head
wait and see
we will go to gyeonnaeryang and reorganize (south sea headquarters of the japanese naval forces)
we will go through the south sea and go the west sea
take a scout ship and two vessels tomorrow (Wakisaka yasuharu)
go to thsis island
annihilate any joseon soldiers that are left and have our fleet dock there
yes sir
his majesty sent a large fleet of vessels
he ordered that we annihilate the joseon naval forces and bring the head of yi sunsin
dont retreat or flee
if you retreat from this battle you wont be killed by joseon soldiers
i will kill you myself
is that understood?
yes sir
asanchang sent 1200 sacks of rice in this difficult situation
it's because you defended the ocean and protected jeolla-do and chungcheong-do
what's regrettable is that his majesty is thinking of going to yodong
but this country doesnt just belong to the king alone
dont be in depair
fight for the people who have to return home
i'm always praying for your safety
thank you
i didnt do anythign what else could i do?
get some rest i will write a reply soon
yes sir
general it's an urgent message from heo naeman in busan
gather the officers
yes sir
the officers of the wae naval forces joined the fleet in busanpo
they're receiving support from the main land and looking for a chance to make a counterattack
stay focused
they must be angry they were defeated last time
did you check the information we received from kim cheonson?
yes he was right
about 70 vessels have been docked at gyeonnaeryang since two this afternoon
gyeonnaeryang (cost of geojedo)
it's narrow and there are many rocks
their vessels are smaller than our panokseons
they will have an advantge
gyeonnaeryang is close to land
if they are defeated and go on land the people who live on the coast will suffer much damage
we will lure the enemy ships to hansando
and annihilate them
dont stall hurry up
hamgyeong-do kato kiyomasa's camp
catch him
please spare me please spare me
you're trembling
i might look rough but i have a soft heart
dont be afraid fill my glass
please
i have a husband
what?you have a husband?
i have a wife
it's alright come here
you wretch
kill her husband right now
give her to the hungry soldiers
yes sir
let's go
please how dare you?
please spare me
general
what is it?
what?
what is it?
general konishi occupied pyeongyangseong
what?what about the king of joseon?
he fled he wasnt there
poor konishi he always ends up like that
that's not how a hunt is done
he should have cut off his path
wait and see
the king of joseon will come to hamyeong-do
yeongbyeon bunjo(temporary court)
hello lord
i got military rations to the reinforcements
the soldiers are resting so i came to see you
i'm glad you came
i have something to discuss with the ministers
i'd like your opinion too
what do you need?
i thought about it
i will not go to gangye
it was a royal order by his majesty
i know but gangye is a border area
going there is taking refuge
how can i encourage the soldiers and righteous troops to save the country?
i plan to go to gangwon-do an area the enemy occupied
i will go to maengsan from there
it connects to many villages
it will be convenient to encourage the people and the righteous troops
it's dangerous
this place is dangerous too
if zu chengxun's army is defeated it will be just be a matter of time before the wae army comes here
wouldnt it be better to enter the enemy camp and confuse them?
i can encourage our soldiers and righteous troops after that
you cant do that crown prince
go to gangye as his majesty ordered
his majesty left all national affairs to me
i dont have to follow his orders
you cant cancel bunjo right away but you cant leave it for a long time
i know i cant let the people follow the crown prince more than me
what do you think lord?
crown prince i'm very proud of you
do as you wish
thank you
i will take his majesty's place and take the lead in overcoming this crisis
