It was Jiang He, the general of the third town of the Taiping Army, who led his troops to capture the counties under the jurisdiction of Ji'an Prefecture. Since the Northern Expedition, Jiang He has contacted the generals of various armies, saying that he would follow Chen Qiaoyi, put on a yellow robe for the marshal, and then the armies returned to Guangzhou, and abolished the bird Tang King as a concubine.

Since the Northern Expedition, the Third Town has been a pioneer and a vanguard, and there is not much interaction with the various armies. After taking Ganzhou, Zhou Shixiang took the first town, the fifteenth town and the new second town to besiege the city of Ji'an, and Jiang He was ordered to lead the third town to sweep the counties under the jurisdiction of Ji'an Prefecture, so that Jiang He could not implement the idea of "wearing a yellow robe" for the marshal, and all the grievances were sprinkled on the heads of those Qing Dynasty officials who were stubborn and refused to surrender.

The third town first broke through Yongfeng County and killed 9 Qing Dynasty officials and 28 gentry in the city. The people who were killed also included the family members of these people, and only Yongfeng was killed that day, and many gentry and big families were wiped out. Jiang He also ordered all the heads of the people killed in Yongfeng to be strung with wire, and sent people to Anfu County, which frightened Anfu County to surrender immediately. Since then, the three counties of Longquan, Taihe, and Luling have either been touched by the righteousness of the restoration of the Ming Dynasty, or forced by the situation, and brought the gentry and people of the whole city to the right.

Zhou Taichang of Yongxinzhi County was born in Shunzhi for ten years with Jinshi, and he felt that Qing Grace was very heavy, and refused to surrender to the Ming army. As a result, the city was broken, none of Zhou Taichang's 19 families survived, and Chen Xiaozhong, the city's thousand presidents, together with more than 50 students from the county school, were ambushed, making Yongxin County cut off from then on, and the people of the time lamented that the cultural context was broken. After using the Yongxin surrender battalion to defraud Yongning City, Jiang He made another plan and ordered more than 20 people from the county governor and gentry and their families, regardless of the old or weak, to fall from the southern city. He also sent troops to capture more than 600 young and strong people in the city on the same day, and killed them in the Sanli Pavilion pit at the east gate, causing the families in Yongning City to mourn. When the gentry of neighboring Wan'an County heard of the Yongning tragedy, the gentry acted together with the Yamen Shuban Xiaoshi to tie up Qingzhi County, which refused to open the city and surrender, to the Taiping army, so as to protect the county.

To the north of Ganzhou, Xin'er Town is progressing smoothly, successively seizing Xingguo, Ningdu, Anyuan, Ruijin, Longnan, Shicheng, Changning, Huichang and other counties, and Xinfeng, Yandu, Anyuan, Guangchang, Nanfeng and other counties have raised the city anyway. The vanguard brigade of Xin'er Town entered Jianchang Mansion, and the Qing army of Jianchang Mansion did not dare to resist and fled in the direction of Fuzhou in the north.

The first town, the fifteenth town, the new town and the first cavalry of the main force of the Taiping Army surrounded the city of Ji'an under the personal command of the commander Zhou Shixiang. Due to the heavy rain in Ji'an, the Taiping army had difficulty in moving, and the camp placement was also very inconvenient, and the city of Ji'an was originally scheduled to be blasted with gunpowder because of the wet ground, so Zhou Shixiang only ordered the troops to surround Ji'an, dig deep trenches, rebuild the camp, and attack the city with artillery every day, without stopping.

The Qing soldiers in Ji'an were panicked, the price of grain rose sharply, and there was a shortage of firewood. Liu Guangbi, the governor of Jiangxi in the Qing Dynasty, sent people to Nanchang to report the emergency, saying that there was no grain and grass inside, and there were no rescuers outside, so it was difficult to wait for a long time. Zhang Chaoxuan, the governor of Qingjiangxi, could not send any reinforcements at the moment, but had to worry about the safety of Nanchang City. It turned out that after the news of Ganzhou being occupied by the Taiping army spread to all parts of Jiangxi, it triggered a series of anti-Qing uprisings.

Jiang Xinggui, the former head of the Chongzhen Dynasty's military department, Ma Jiang, a member of the Sheng, and others raised troops in Nankang Mansion to respond. Ma Jiang proclaimed himself the governor, and Jiang Xinggui called the secretary of the military department, and led thousands of people to conquer Duchang, Hukou, Xingzi and other counties. Seeing that the situation was in danger and the troops were outnumbered, Xu Xueyi, the deputy general of Nankang in the Qing Dynasty, ordered the whole army to enter Nankang City and defend it by danger. Unexpectedly, Chen Wanhe and others of Nankang Dusi were instigated by the envoys of Jiang Xinggui and others, and led hundreds of troops to raise the flag in Anyi County, making Nankang City suddenly a lonely city.

There have always been water bandits gathered in the area of Poyang Lake, and the Qing army has not been completely pacified by dozens of times, and the water bandits are also taking advantage of the chaos of the Qing army, and the opportunity of the empty soldiers and horses has risen one after another. His song says, "One thousand and seventeen brothers, no one in the world is invincible." Someone has come to offend me, one by one, two, one." If there are other water bandits and green forests who have not raised troops against the Qing Dynasty, these Poyang Lake water villages will jointly attack and force the other party to raise the flag together. There are always eighteen villages, the owner of the village is called the generalissimo of the soldiers and horses under the refuge, several governors under it, several governors, and the governors of the five armies are readily available.

When the new second town of the Taiping Army was still more than 100 miles away from Luxi County, Jianchang Prefecture, the Qing Dynasty magistrate and the county Cheng and others absconded with the seal, and the people in the city took refuge in the city. This is the first case since Jiashen.

Some gentry and students in various places also took advantage of the situation to raise troops, and the common people were mostly exploited by the Qing court on weekdays, so they also responded one after another. Although it is a rabble, because the Qing army in various places is empty, almost the formation of officers and soldiers, so it can be done in an instant. Hu Mou of Le'an Zhi County, Fuzhou was corrupt and perverted the law on weekdays, and the amount of acres of land was excessive, but a small child in the city suddenly shouted "The Ming soldiers are coming", and the people instantly waved their arms and roared to the county government. Hu was so frightened that he hid in the thatched house, but was searched by the angry people and drowned him alive in the thatched pit.

In Fengcheng County, Nanchang Prefecture, there was also an incident in which hundreds of gentry plundered the city, and the officers and soldiers were scattered. Governor Zhang Chaoxuan sent his lieutenant general Wu Zhipei to lead 100 troops to suppress it, but the troops broke up halfway. The gentry and township eunuchs of Wuning County openly netted scarves with big sleeves, saying that the big thing had been done, and persuaded the county to be quick to welcome Shun, so that the people's hearts were turbulent, and none of the officials in various places had the will to stick to it.

Feng Guocai, a craftsman from Shanggao County, Ruizhou, assumed the alias Zhu Hongtu, pretending to be in the name of the Shige Department, and led more than 10 apprentices' relatives and friends to raise troops, and he actually captured Shanggao County in one fell swoop. Subsequently, Feng Guocai sent people to contact the gentry and eunuchs of Gao'an, Xinchang and Ruizhou, preparing to raise the flag together to capture the capital. More than 1,000 Qing troops in Ruizhou came to suppress it, Feng Guocai led the villagers to resist bravely, and none of the squires who had agreed to raise troops arrived. After fighting hard for more than two hours, Feng Guocai was captured and killed by the Qing army.

Li Zhicui, the superintendent of the imperial history of Jiangxi in the Qing Dynasty, actually sent someone to secretly send a letter to Zhou Shixiang, in which he said: "If the people's hearts are not dead, who has no Hansi?" The public initiative is very, advocating for the world, leading the enterprise in the world, and looking forward to the public day and night! ”

Except for the prefectures and counties that had been captured by the Taiping army, none of the other prefectures in Jiangxi had no gentry and villagers raising banners against the Qing Dynasty, Zhang Chaoxuan saw that the people's hearts were unstable, and in order to prevent internal changes, he actually killed Chen Yin, Ding Quangui and others in the original Li Chengdong Department who had surrendered to the Qing Dynasty in Jiangxi, and ordered a large number of arrests in the city of gentry and scholars suspected of regaining their sight.
