Yung-ting

Chang was born in Chin-sha village, Yung-ting hsien, a rural area in southwest Fukien not far from the Kwangtung border.[…]Again the record is obscure, but it suggests that he returned to southwest Fukien during the year 1925 to teach again in a primary school. This was a primary school in Feng-lang village in Shang-hang hsien, the neighboring county to Yung-ting. The latter information is drawn from a biography of Liu Yung-sheng, a fellow radical from Shang-hang hsien who later commanded local forces in Yung-ting belonging to the army of Chang Ting-ch’eng.

But Wang Hai-yang, pursued by Fang Yao's Kwangtung provincial troops, reentered Fukien and laid siege to Yung-ting on May 15th. Wang and his fellow commanders launched a massive attack with 70,000 men on K’ang Kuo-ch’i’s army May 19th but were repulsed. Two days later, after a fierce counterattack on Chien-t'an that cost the Taipings over 6,000 casualties, the siege of Yung-ting was raised and Wang led a retreat to the northwest.
