The Toi invasion (Japanese: 刀伊の入寇 toi no nyūkō) was the invasion of northern Kyūshū by Jurchen pirates in 1019.^[1]https://www.passeidireto.com/arquivo/20255402/cambridge-history-of-japan-vol-2/4 https://dokumen.pub/the-cambridge-history-of-japan-series-heian-japan-volume-2-of-6-0521223539-0521223520-0521223547-0521223555-0521223563-0521223571-0521657288.html https://is.muni.cz/el/phil/jaro2017/JAP114/um/Cambridge_History_of_Japan_2.txt https://j.forriebavertvi.pro/2098.html https://ge.b-ok.cc/book/609587/e3524c?dsource=recommend https://is.muni.cz/el/1421/jaro2017/JAP114/um/Cambridge_History_of_Japan_2.txt https://kr.b-ok.asia/book/609587/e3524c?dsource=recommend https://in.b-ok.as/book/609587/e3524c https://in.b-ok.as/book/609587/e3524c https://in.b-ok.as/book/5635673/e940fb https://tr.b-ok.asia/book/609587/e3524c?dsource=recommend https://b-ok.cc/book/5635673/e940fb?dsource=recommend https://b-ok.cc/book/609587/e3524c?dsource=recommend https://ua.b-ok.lat/book/609587/e3524c https://silo.pub/the-cambridge-history-of-japan-k-7962686.html https://spokhecorritua.pro/2098.html https://it.b-ok2.org/book/609587/e3524c https://epdf.pub/the-cambridge-history-of-japan-pdf-5eccf3a00df7e.html https://ru.b-ok2.org/book/5635673/e940fb https://zh.b-ok2.org/book/609587/e3524c https://ua.b-ok2.org/book/609587/e3524c At the time, Toi (되, Doe) meant "barbarian" in the Korean language.

The Toi pirates sailed with about 50 ships from direction of Goryeo, then assaulted Tsushima and Iki, starting 27 March 1019. After the Iki Island garrison comprising 147 soldiers was wiped out, the pirates proceeded to Hakata Bay. For a week, using Noko Island [ja] in the Hakata Bay as a base, they sacked villages and kidnapped over 1,000 Japanese, mostly women and young girls, for use as slaves. The Dazaifu, the administrative center of Kyūshū, then raised an army and successfully drove the pirates away.

During the second failed raid on Matsuura on 13 April 1019, three enemies were captured by the Japanese army. They were identified as Koreans. They said that they had guarded the borderland but had been captured by the Toi. However, this was unlikely, and the Japanese officers suspected them because there had been Korean pirates attacking Japan coasts during the Silla period. A few months later, the Goryeo delegate Jeong Jaryang (鄭子良) reported that Goryeo forces attacked the pirates off Wŏnsan and rescued about 260 Japanese. The Korean government then repatriated them to Japan where they were thanked by the Dazaifu and given rewards. There remain detailed reports by two captive women, Kura no Iwame and Tajihi no Akomi.

These Jurchen pirates lived in what is today Hamgyŏngdo, North Korea.

Traumatic memories of the Jurchen raids on Japan, the Mongol invasions of Japan in addition to Japan viewing the Jurchens as "Tatar" "barbarians" after copying China's barbarian-civilized distinction, may have played a role in Japan's antagonistic views against Manchus and hostility towards them in later centuries such as when the Tokugawa Ieyasu viewed the unification of Manchu tribes as a threat to Japan. The Japanese mistakenly thought that Hokkaido (Ezochi) had a land bridge to Tartary (Orankai) where Manchus lived and thought the Manchus could invade Japan. The Tokugawa Shogunate bakufu sent a message to Korea via Tsushima offering help to Korea against the 1627 Manchu invasion of Korea. Korea refused it.^[2]
