賊分股突犯杭州，瑞昌令副都統來存出武林門御之，自守錢塘門，偕巡撫羅遵殿佈置甫定，賊已麕至，縱火撲城。 Rebel columns struck Hangzhou. Rui Chang sent Deputy Commander Laicun out through Wulin Gate to meet them while he held Qiantang Gate himself. He and Governor Luo Zundian had barely finished their dispositions when the rebels swarmed in and set fires along the walls.

杭州初破，瑞昌欲自剄，傑純與副都統來存言賊以偏師疾至，未有後繼，猶可力保駐防城以待外援，瑞昌從之，乃登陴守禦。 When Hangzhou first fell, Rui Chang meant to take his own life. Jie Chun and Deputy Commander Laicun urged that the rebels had arrived with only a vanguard and no reserves, and that the garrison quarter could still be held until relief came. Rui Chang agreed and took to the ramparts.
