In the 20th year of Wanli (1592), Toyotomi Hideyoshi initially unified Japan and launched a war of aggression against Korea with all the strength of the country, trying to use Korea as a springboard to attack the Ming Dynasty.
North Korea lost Seoul, Kaesong, and Pyongyang in one month, and the war burned to the border between North Korea and the Ming Dynasty. Emperor Wanli sent general Li Rusong to aid North Korea.
A large-scale East Asian war that lasted seven years ended with Japan's complete withdrawal from North Korea after a series of overt fighting and covert contests.

Reader comments
Okay, I've read it twice. Although it cannot compare with the entire history of the Wanli War to Aid Korea. But it can be considered a good history book.
