  1. A municipal city in South Chungcheong Province, South Korea.
    “This policy of pursuing war and peace simultaneously was also what the Chinese commander Ye Zhizhao^([sic – meaning Zhichao]) in Yashan recommended:[…] In mid-July, the British ambassador in Beijing, Nicholas O'Conor remarked that while there were as many as 10,000 Japanese soldiers in Korea, there were only 2,000 Chinese soldiers,³⁴ not to mention the fact that those Chinese troops were all stuck in Yashan, a place which was impossible to defend strategically.”
