Talk:Siege of Pyongyang (1592)

Untitled

Yi Sun Shin never visited Pyongyang. And Pyongyang is too far inland to be bombarded by maritime vessels. DaeHanJeiGuk 02:39, 23 September 2005 (UTC)

I agree. This is nonsense. The actual siege (I believe was this was in 1593) involved an attack by joint Korean-Chinese force (mainly Ming Chinese, actually) against Japanese Daimyo Konishi Yukinaka. Most Japanese forces would already have withrawn by the time the city came under attack.

According to List of battles during the Japanese invasions of Korea (1592-1598) there were two battles in Pyongyang in 1592 and one 1593. (There it is spelled Pyeongyang). RJFJR 21:35, 22 April 2007 (UTC)

Please keep sources in English or provide a translation

There are at least three sources in English for this incident: Turnbull, Swope, and Hawley. I realize that there are non-English sources, but this is the English wikipedia, not Korean or Chinese or Japanese. If you wish to include non-English sources, please provide a translation and try to keep the sources to published academic ones such as monographs or articles.

Also please keep the dates in Gregorian calendar unless otherwise noted. There's no reason to use the lunar calendar first and then put the Gregorian calendar in brackets.

Don't just put in content which directly contradicts another source unless specifically noted. If Hawley says the numbers are 10,000 or 20,000, don't just keep that and put in another number. Qiushufang (talk) 23:43, 27 July 2020 (UTC)
