Battle of Ixtlahuaca

The Battle of Ixtlahuaca, an episode of the Mexican Reform War, took place on September 18, 1858 in the municipality of Ixtlahuaca in the State of Mexico, between liberal and conservative army forces.

The liberal brigadier, Manuel Garcia Pueblita, then commander of the division of Michoacán was near San Felipe del Progreso, when he was notified via military information that a conservative force was garrisoned in the town of Ixtlahuaca.

He quickly led his troops to that town, arriving on 18 September 1858 at 10:00 hours.

He retired to Tepetitlán with the Treasury, yielding the town to Benito Juárez.
