By ordering a ban on selling or exporting brass for 3 years when collecting enough yellow roads therefore ordered to cast a cannon The area where the cannon was cast showed traces of black soil and no grass grew until now. After casting the cannons, Rayabi Ru gave the two big guns the names "Sri Pattani and Srinagar" and the small ones were named "Mahalela"

Later, in 1786 B.E., Somdej Krommuang Bovornmahasurasinghanat His Royal Highness sent an army to attack Pattani, so he asked them to bring "Sri Pattani and Srinagar guns" onto the boat, but an accident caused the Srinagar guns to fall into the water and were lost while moving. Therefore, only one gun from Sripattani came to Bangkok.
