Shimazu's Record of Admiral Yi Sun-shin's Last Battle

 The Battle of Noryang, the end of the Japanese Invasion of Korea, took place on November 19, 1598, and was fought to escape Soseo Haengjang (Yukinaga Konishi), who was trapped in Suncheon Japanese Fortress. The Japanese generals had a meeting ahead of the rescue of the president of Soseo, and the Japanese generals followed Yoshihiro Shimazu, who argued that "letting their troops die on the land of Joseon would be a flaw in Japanese history," and he plays the lead in the rescue. Yoshihiro Shimazu was 64 years old at the time and an outstanding Japanese general who was also afraid of Pungshinsu-gil and Tokugawa Ieyasu, and was a daimyo of Satsuma (now Kagoshima Prefecture) in the southern part of Kyushu. He also killed Won Gyun, who replaced Admiral Yi Sun-shin, in the Battle of Chilcheonryang. The leaflet was held in Noryang from 4 a.m. on November 18, and first, King Jangsu of the Ming Dynasty, Deungjoseon, rushed at the Japanese enemy and was killed by the Japanese concentrated fire. The 500 Japanese ships consisted of 10 divisions, including the 1st Shimazu Yoshihiro, 2nd Shiranobu, 3rd Kabayama Kudaka, 4th Tachibana, 5th Terazawa Hirotaka, 6th Tanegashimashi, 7th Yamada Arinobu, and 9th Tekahashi. Yoshihiro Shimazu, a veteran general, hides his ruse fleet among these fleets. Fifty of Kabayama Kudaka's third fleet of the fleet will become a hidden fleet that will unexpectedly strike the Joseon Navy. The battle was mainly fought in front of the Noryang Strait and Gwaneumpo (the bay of Iraksa Temple west of Namhae Island) in front of the Jihyeopji Reservoir. 혹Some people mistook the Jihyeop for a waterway, but I believe this is not true. The topography is the basic of soldiers) It was mainly spread out in the area, and Kabayama Kudaka, the vanguard who charged Gwaneumpo Bay where the Joseon Navy was located, fought a little, abandoned the military ships in the beach, landed, and fled to the mountain. He landed on the South Sea Island and gave up his ship. Admiral Yi Sun-shin, who watched this from afar, must have thought, "Ugly cowards, Japanese!" Thinking that their Japanese fleet had given up the fight, they turned their heads and fought against Yoshihiro Shimazu's other fleet. As the day dawns, the battle adds intensity. Japanese ships are almost destroyed as damage is caused by the death of Lee Young-nam, a Garipo attaché, on our side. It was mysterious that Shimazu's boat also had its bow folded, its mast bent, and was floating on the sea in tatters (recorded by the Japanese side). At this moment of crisis, when Yamada Arinobu of the 7th Fleet risked his life to jump into the Joseon Navy and save Yoshihiro Shimazu, the ship sinks. The unfamiliar tide played a big part in why the fleet was severely damaged. It was recorded that the tide made it impossible for the fleet to turn. The fleet under Yoshihiro Shimazu, which was 250 ships, sank 200 ships and fell to 50. It was in the afternoon when the victory of the Joseon Navy became clear. "What about those Japanese ships?" A group of new Japanese ships appeared behind Admiral Yi Sun-shin and made a surprise attack. It was an unexpected attack. "Where are all the Japanese ships from when they all sank?" The Japanese ships came from Gwaneumpo Bay and were 50 ships in Kabayama Kudaka's 3rd Battalion, who abandoned their ships in the morning and fled to the mountains. They did not abandon the ship. He drove out the ship again and caught the Joseon Navy off guard. The Japanese soldiers gained momentum and concentrated their fire on Admiral Yi Sun-shin's Panokseon, which they had barely figured out. Admiral Yi Sun-shin's Panok Line, which was attacked back and forth, was subjected to heavy artillery fire, and the Panok Line became a bloodbath. (This expression is a copy of Shimazu Yoshihiro's record of the Battle of Island) Yoshihiro Shimazu aimed at Yi Sun-shin's death, but this strategy fell. When it comes to trap tactics, Japanese generals who went through the 100th-century Warring States Period were one step ahead. A bullet from a Japanese-style fire, not a stray bullet, penetrated the chest, and Admiral Yi Sun-shin was killed in this sea of blood on board. Admiral Yi Sun-shin ordered his death to be hidden, but soon it was widely known to both the enemy and allies of the front that "the great Admiral Yi Sun-shin is dead!" (Recorded by Yoshihiro Shimazu) By dawn, more than 10,000 drowned bodies and 400 ships were sunk, and Japanese troops withdrew. Although they succeeded in rescuing Soseo and shooting Admiral Yi Sun-shin, the Battle of Noryang, which they also recognized as a defeat, ended. (Shimazu Yoshihiro said, "He built a memorial altar for both the Japanese and Korean soldiers in Sichuan Province and Satuma, where he stayed," and he is believed to have emptied the repose of the enemy leader in respect of Admiral Yi Sun-shin.) According to the above, Admiral Yi Sun-shin was caught by Shimazu's inducement.

The bottom line is nonsense and exaggerated lies
