Li Shunchen vigorously defied the public opinion, ordered people to burn down the army's heavy supply warehouses, broke the cauldron and sank the boat, and called on his subordinates to fight with the Wokou to the death with the spirit of "the brave live, and the fearful die".
Between Mingliang and Jindo Bibo Pavilion, there is a strait with rapid water. Li Shunchen took advantage of the low tide to send people to set up iron cables and wooden stakes. At the moment of the great war, Li Shunchen took the lead and personally led the flagship warship to meet the battle alone. A vicious battle, sinking the enemy command ship and two other warships. One Piece is killed, and the formation is in chaos. At this time, the tide had begun to recede, the sea was turbulent and flowing in the east, and the Korean warships took advantage of the situation to attack, and the enemy ships could not resist and retreated eastward, but they were blocked by iron cables and wooden stakes. The Korean warships seized the favorable fighters, rushed to kill, sank more than thirty enemy ships, killed more than 4,000 enemy troops, severely damaged the Japanese fleet, and created a famous battle in the history of world naval warfare in which fewer victories were won more.
