Dobos was one of the best Aurucolian commanders in the Sikh and Aurucolian War with his skilled strategic and tactical maneuvers, a feat that Wahandi and his mentor Marshal Flórián Székely de Kisbátor commended; his exemplary accomplishments displaying this were his Breakthrough at Zanda, his assault at the Battle of Kanpur and his defense and pursuit of the Lucians at the Battle of Ghazipur-Panjwran.

After the death of Wahandi at the Fall of Darjeeling, Dobos and Surajprakash Kerah retreated to Patna, where he would meet and fight against his best friend Johannes Vandemeer.
