Siamese strength and modern arms are greater than Anouvong had imagined, and his armies continue to march towards Vientiane.

They defend the city for five days, as Anouvong flees for his life towards the border with Vietnam.

The Siamese general Phraya Bodindecha at last tak es Anouvong's capital city.

He sacks the palaces and levels the city’s defenses, but he leaves the monasteries and much of the city intact.

With the sack of Vientiane, the rulers of Chiang Mai, Lampang, Lamphun, Nan, Phrae, and the kingdom of Luang Prabang all pledge their renewed allegiance to Siam.
