The Samguk Sagi also reports that the Cheomhae forged a truce with Goguryeo, and that his reign saw repeated clashes with Baekje. Cheomhae's kinsman, the general Uro, was slain by the people of Wa in the year 250.[1]
The defeat at this time dealt a serious blow to Silla. Later, Silla became close to Baekje and Goguryeo to guard against Japan. Given that some of the conquered city-states reappeared as Gaya, some city-states became independent.[2] It was not until the reign of King Jijeung that Silla overcame the aftereffects and resumed its conquest.
