Description

Together with his younger brother, Ekatotsarot, Naresuen began to gather armed followers. He had gained an insight into Burmese armed strength and strategies during his formative years. He trained his troops in the art of guerilla warfare and their hit-and-run tactics earned them the nicknames Wild Tigers and Peeping Cats. Naresuen's opportunity to restore Siamese independence came following the death of Bayinnaung, in 1581. Revolts in the Shan states and at Ava were tying young King Nandabayin down at home when Naresuen declared Ayutthaya's freedom, in 1584. During the following nine years, the Burmese made several attempts to resubjugate Siam, but Naresuen had taken thorough defensive measures and repulsed all invasions. On one of these occasions, he killed the Burmese crown prince in single combat, both of them mounted on elephants.
