Chao Fa Mo, who served as both viceroy and minister of defense, mobilized his troops and devised a strong strategy to defend the capital of Oudong, and sent King Ang Eng to hide in Phnom Penh fortress. War broke out for 10 days, The Siamese side stopped fighting and withdrew the three divisions and sent its envoys to negotiate peace with Cambodia, promising to send Ang Eng's son back to Cambodia.
