Battle
When the Koreans attacked, some of the Japanese were still out foraging for food. The Japanese came out and fired at the Koreans, but they were surrounded and killed. The Koreans didn't know how to use the matchlock firearms, so they used them as clubs. At this point a heavy downpour started so the Koreans fell back and retreated.Шаблон:Sfn
The next day the Koreans discovered the Japanese had evacuated from Cheongju and took the city without a fight.Шаблон:Sfn
Aftermath
With Cheonju secured the Koreans moved on towards Geumsan.Шаблон:Sfn
