Assuming that it is the episode shown on Saturday, Oct 8 in NY:
Prime Minister Yu Seong Ryung visits the Japanese generals and demands that they disarm and go back to Japan. As the winter season approaches the rough seas make it difficult to get supplies from Japan and the Choson-Ming alliance has almost as many troops as the Japanese.
YSS is building new ships as fast as possible. The people have built him a new base, which plays to Kings jealousy. The king sends his servant to Yun Du-Su to hint that he wants the Western faction to make sure that YSS does not get to much power after thewar.
The Japanese have retrenched to 18? forts. The Allies pick Kato's fort to besiege since Kato is the most aggressive Japanese general. The Mings mostly hang back and shoot cannons. It’s a tough siege until finally they cut off the fort's water supply. They never take the fort but the day after they stop the siege Kato escapes to a different fort. The narrators tells us that Kato tried to commit suicide at this point.
YSS proposes a 4 way attack on some of the forts. Three directions by land with the navy covering the sea. The Ming ambassador, Yang Hao says that YSS's fleet is still too small and gets the Ming fleet to join in. Admiral Chen Lin is sent. He meets YSS who pours him some tea. Chen Lin throws the tea in YSS's face. Freeze frame.

I still can't believe that Ming commander threw tea in YSS face What the heck is his problem? First he storms in the Naval base demanding to see YSS and knocking people out of the way, and even then YSS was so nice to him. Then after a meal is prepared for him, and YSS pours him some tea he throws it in his face?! I was so mad, how dare he do that. YSS has never done anything to him, why is he taking out his anger on YSS? Did that Ming commander come out in the first 4 episodes? I vaguely remember him. I remember the other Ming commander with the thick mustache, but I'm not sure about this one. Anyways it was so amazing to see all the people cheering for YSS and his men when they came back to the base. How it must've touched YSS heart.
