檄道員席寶田率前部先發，會剿陶家渡，自將攻湖口，逼賊營，屢出奇兵抄擊，斷文橋，攻太平關，賊酋黃文金受重創遁去，賜黃馬褂。 He sent Circuit Intendant Xi Baotian ahead with the vanguard to join the action at Taojia Ford, then led the main body against Hukou, harrying the rebel camps with repeated flanking strikes, severing Wen Bridge and storming Taiping Pass until the rebel chief Huang Wenjin was badly wounded and fled; for this he received the yellow riding jacket.
