A new movie by John Woo is coming out about this battle in Chinese history.  Most people in the West know little about it. 
 
Here is a clip from Cannes film festival.  Interesting to note is the chinese Infantry Square tactic, the "Goose" formation, Zhuge Liang inventing the repeating crossbow, and riverine naval vessels.
