九年，石達開圍寶慶，巡撫駱秉章令達武募五百人號曰章武軍，從知府劉岳昭援寶慶，守東關，屢拒戰破賊。 In the ninth year Shi Dakai besieged Baoding. Governor Luo Bingzhang ordered Dawu to raise five hundred men as the Zhangwu Army, follow Prefect Liu Yuezhao to the relief, hold the East Gate, and beat back the rebels again and again.

石達開分黨犯永明、柘牌，連戰破之，擢總兵。 When Shi Dakai dispatched followers against Yongming and Zhepai, Dawu defeated them in battle after battle and was promoted to brigade general.
