As for the naval attack on Suncheon Japanese Castle . Chen Lin , Commander of the Chinese navy and The Korean admiral Yi Sun - sin attacked during high tide and came up close to the Japanese castle on its seaside .

Baghatur Baghatur ( Mongolian : " Baghatur / Ba ' atur " ( Modern Mongolian : Баатар " Baatar " ) , Turkish : Batur / Bahadır , Russian : Boghatir ) is a historical Turco - Mongol honorific title , in origin a term for " hero " or " valiant warrior " .
