The armed force of Čhāophrayā Bǭdindēchā pursued him up to Pīamanao, where a Yūan armed force marched forth to defend him and engaged in battle with the Thai armed force on many occasions. Unable to further pursue and capture Somdet Phra ʿUthairāchā, the armed force of Čhāophrayā Bǭdindēchā retired to station itself in the city of Phra Tabǭng.
Once it became the Year of the Snake, Year Six,[1] Phrayā ʿUdomphakdī, who had ruled the city of Phra Tabǭng as Phrayā ʿAphaiphūbēt for eight years, met his karma.[2] As for Somdet Phra ʿUthairāchā who had fled south to take refuge under the Vietnamese monarchy in the Yūan Country, he returned to the kingdom of Kamphōchā and departed to the Abode of the Brave.[3] Somdet Phra ʿUthairāchā had four royal daughters, one named Čhāoʿong Bǣn, one named Čhāoʿong Mī, one named Čhāoʿong Phao, the other named Čhāoʿong Sa-ngūan.
