張煌言兵屢入，與總兵李長榮分路擊卻之，累進右都督，精忠叛，萬福嬰城固守，城破，死之，闔家被害。 Zhang Huangyan's forces raided repeatedly; with Brigadier Li Changrong he beat them back along separate routes and rose to Right Regional Commander. When Jingzhong rebelled, Wanfu held Funing in a closed defense; when the city fell he died and his whole family perished.
