Later in the Ayutthaya period, it became the Rajthanee, the area where Udon Thani appeared in History: Around the year 2117 B.E., the King of Hongsawadee had enlisted Thai troops to help beat Krung Sri Sattnak Nahut. (Vientiane) by having King Naresuan the Great and King Naresuan the Great to help fight But when the Thai army arrived in Nong Bua Lam Phu, which is the town's outpost Vientiane King Naresuan the Great is sick with smallpox, so the army will not have to fight. With Vientiane and the city of Nong Bua Lam Phu, this is assumed to be a city with Prosperity since the reign of Khmer power In the period of Rattanakosin as the capital Udon Thani province was involved in the war, that is, during the year 1826-1928, the rebels of Chao Anuwong raised an army to capture Nakhon Ratchasima. The leader is Khunying Mo (Thao Suranaree), Chao Anuwong's army has retreated to receive at Nong Bua Lam Phu.

Another aggravation in Lao Phuan Province, Phu left the Mekong River, and appears to be violent. King Chulalongkorn, please give Phra Borom Wong Her Krom Muen Prajak Sillapakhom As a general in the south And Chao Muen Waiwanat is the general of the northern side to suppress the Ho At that time, the city of Udon Thani had not yet appeared in name, it was only the name of Ban Mak Khaeng or Ban Dua Mak Khaeng Nong Khai City under the rule of Laos Phuan And Krom Muen Prajak Sillapakhom, the commander of the Southern General, marched through the house of Mak Khaeng Went to suppress the Haw until calm After the suppression of Hoh-peace, Thailand had a dispute with France.
