After his coronation in 1767, King Taksin made Mud the Samuha Nayok or the Prime Minister of Siam with the title of Chaophraya Chakri.
Due to his Persian-Malay descent and his familial connection to the Krom Asa Cham, Chaophraya Chakri Mud was tasked with responsibility for the naval warfare.
[2] This expedition ended in failure,[2] however, as Chakri Mud was defeated in the Battle of Thamak and his son Khun Laksamana was captured by the Ligorian forces.
King Taksin ordered Chaophraya Chakri Mud to lead a naval force to pursue Nakhon Nu.
Sultan Muhammad of Pattani, avoiding Siamese attacks, decided to hand over[4] Nakhon Nu to Chakri Mud.
In March 1771, King Taksin led a riverine fleet to the north in efforts to attack the Burmese-held Chiang Mai.
In November 1771, Chaophraya Chakri Mud joined his lord King Taksin in the naval expedition against the port city-state of Hà Tiên, ruled by the Cantonese ruler Mạc Thiên Tứ, to the east.
As the war reached stalemate, King Taksin ordered Chaophraya Chakri Mud the guard the Bassac front against Vietnamese counter-offensives.
