Years: 1863 - 1863
Taiping general Shi Dakai has consistently refused to surrender, chiding the Qing officials for their cooperation with foreign barbarians, scorning the Qing government's offer of huge rewards and high rank.
Shi, who had hoped to establish an independent kingdom in the western province of Szechwan, is unable to win a popular base and is eventually caught and executed in June by government forces.
