In May 1863 General Antoni Jeziorański, one of the more gifted and energetic January Uprising commanders, organized a guerrilla expedition from Galicia to the Kingdom of Poland. The unit he commanded fought and won two battles with Russian troops in the Kobylanka forest. Word of the fights reached not only the Kingdom of Poland but also Europe. During the fights between 1 and 6 May the commander showed himself to be highly proficient in warfare; he fully controlled the situation and never allowed the enemy to take him by surprise. He was able to use his meager reserves against the three times more numerous enemy units, and predict the main attack of Russian troops. A few days later there came a crisis, however: the unit, weakened after fighting, was defeated by the stronger enemy in the battle of Huta Krzeszowska (on 11 May) and was driven back to Galicia. Although the expedition had looked promising, it ended in the insurgents’ failure, like other similar expeditions from Galicia to the Kingdom of Poland.
