They entered to the suburbs of the city. To help the government forces, abducted weapons went to war, many volunteer patriots. After bloody fighting, they turned the rebels back into the hills of Rapsbull. But this did not ease the critical state of the government, because the fire of the uprising spread to other parts of the country.
