I will be ceding the Yathon to Hokum instead.

"Very well. I'll gladly send you some latest equipment of the Republic in pursuing the Yahupi Confederacy for the national prosperity. Also, the Resident General will be committed and arrived to your capital soon in a given advice on how to modernize the country. Listen to him closely and choosing a right choice will made a progress of your nation, but as long as the people aren't pro-traditionalists or anti-modernization of course." taught by Veilletes Ambassador while orderly placed his documents into his file bag.
In the meantime, we're currently lacked a field of our doctrine, the land military and thus unable to send a margin forces to seize control of those islands. So don't expect a sizable reinforcements from the Republic and only given a small allocation of troops by 25,000 volunteering infantrymen to the colonial front, excluded the navy and the airforce." Told by the Veilletes Ambassador about their army standing.
"Lastly and before I'll return to an office of ministry, if you need more fighting capabilities against the natives, there was some mercenary contracts from Alfieq's Army that I do bring along during this negotiation trip, where foreign paid soldiers are willingly to fight for food and money in return of their military services. So, if you need more manpower, you may ask the Resident General to set the contracts for those AA mercenaries to combat against the Yahupi, but as long as your economy might've able to sustain that long enough to defeat them before crashing down... All right, that's all I could've asked for, and see you in the next diplomatic event." said by the Veilletes Ambassador explaining about Alfieq's Army MERC contracts before he packing up and leave the capital.

The Ambassador of Veilletes Republic had pulled his documents containing the proposals and presidential degrees for the Federation.
"The proposals of premises to the Veilletes Republic were unconscionably stated as follows:
First proposal, opening ports and sea for our merchants to get through the strait, and the establishments of Veilletes Shops and Markets at your coastal cities. In return of accepting this proposal will not only granted access to our wares, but also granted permission to set afoot at the Veilletes home ports (e.g Erksterm) and thus so your people can start a business there with a minor foreign control.
Second proposal, the requisition on claiming some island pieces within a strait for setting up a Veilletes trading ports by under our rules of governing. Here is the bastion demand of the Veilletes Republic as the map crossed for a future compensation:
Third and a last proposal, the insertion of Veilletes Resident General at your government body. His/her duties within your government is to become an advisory, and the representative figure of the Veilletes Republic as to reduce the time needed for communication inbetween two distant nations. He/She is also responsible for overseeing the progress of modernization to your country, but at a cost of limiting your power on foreign relations with other nations/factions if you've accepted this proposal." said the Veilletes Ambassador.

The only thing that the Yahupi soldiers can only harmed the VNMS Trionator was their sailors roaming around the ship. Not their best moments of combat nor the Veilletes sailors at the VNMS Trionator, both were on a stiff close-ranged combat between a manned automatic cannons, sailors with rifles vs the Yahupi muskets ravaging all over the ship. Unfortunately for the Yahupi soldiers boarded at the VNMS Trionator, many of them were killed by those said weapons and even worst, they're highly disorganized when attempting to fight against a ship that can carry up between 1200-2000 crewmen onboard, and half of them are complemented with a basic self-defense weapon (e.g rifle) to ward off incoming boarders.
After with some bloodshed, the VNMS Trionator had lost a few numbers of their crew, around 80 men died to a Yahupi boarding raid. But with a swift ramming by the VNMS Trionator has managed to escape from the Yahupi infested strait and now on their venture way back to the colonial state from the north.

"I don't know why you're interested to see me for the first time, but nonetheless the case, I have three proposals for you on behalf of the Republic." said by the Ambassador while searching through his file bag.
----------------------------
The VNMS Trionator has repositioned itself and going for a formally retreat by attempting a ramming speed through those fireships. It's may be a worth of a risk, but it's the only way to exist the Yahupi Strait in a short amount of time.
The ship whistle has horned, the crew are position themselves on bracing for impact, and the small caliber cannons are ready to dissuade the Yahupi fireships. The VNMS Trionator has started its full swing and suddenly throttle towards them without warning.

"Alrighty then. I'll send the messenger back to the southern colonial government to send an ambassador.. for.. something.. in return of having a good relation while possibly an access through the east indie." said by the Veilletes Explorer.

The flaming cannonballs does eventually hit directly at the VNMS Trionator, but being bounced off with a small scratches on its metallic surfaces and a splintered fracture of a wooden deck. In other words, no damage has been taken from a ship by an outdated siege weapon in two eras behind. The Yahupi muskets doesn't fare too well against a metal battleship as everything were reflected off by the plate of armor, some of those shots landed inaccurately onto the surface of an ocean, and ultimately in the end, just only manage to wound a single sailor openly exposed from VNMS Triotanor side deck.
"THAT'S IT! These natives just have scratched my fudging 2 days paint job already!" Angered by the captain.
"Captain! We've reported that one of our crewmen has been hit by a gunshot! He's now carrying back to the medical ward for tendering his wound." Called upon by the 1st Commanding Officer.
"Attention to all gunners, manned all the secondaries, prepare to return fire at those flaming weapon devices and smoldering the rest of their inhabitants!
Repeat!
Manned all the secondaries, prepare to return fire at those flaming weapon devices and smoldering the rest of their inhabitants! Over and out!" Ordered by the captain while ringing by the ship's alarm.
The VNMS Trionator rotated their secondary guns at the facing of one of Yahupi islands and beginning to fire High Explosive rounds at them without mercy. This eventually causes some destruction of natural floras and faunas of the island as after taking a few land hits, turning a whole place into a conflicted zone.

"Delay but surely. Where is your capital by the way?" said by the Veilletes Explorer.
-----------------------
The VNMS Trionator was driven deeper into the Yahupi strait as only to gather a small information about those underestimated native tribes. In otherwise of their sensitive and aggressive behavior towards the Trionator's recon pilot, no courses of counter actions were made by the VNMS Trionator, as fighting against the inferior natives were viewed as the abuse of superiority weapons by the international view.
The crew of VNMS Trionator were still continuing to stroll around the strait as to update their charters in the meantime.

A Veilletes Explorer within a party was explaining on how and what formed the Veilletes Republic on a short and an oversimplified backstory.
"It begins as the small kingdom called the Veilletes Kingdom. Then there's merger union of two kingdoms with an unfortunate intermarriage of our royals, and thus formed the megalomaniac empire along with the Militarian that spurs beyond within our vision. However, we're officially split up into two stable nations right after the great Militarian Revolution to finally ended the idea of serving under a royal family, and probably one of the largest empires to date. That's probably about it, I guess." told by the Veilletes Explorer.
Another Veilletes Explorer has asked a single question about the Yahupi Confederacy.
"Who was those barbarians called the Yahupi Confederacy? If they are barbarians, then how they have manage to form a basic government idea of confederation?" said by another Veilletes Explorer.

The Recon Plane was attempting to evade the flaming cannonballs by doing some flying, defensive maneuvers.
"This is Triotanor recon seaplane reporting. We've been flunged by a flaming ball of steel. Can I have a permission to disengage and returning to ship, over?" radioed calmly by the recon pilot.
"Affirmative, you may abort your mission and returning to ship, over and out!" radioed by Triotanor's radioman.
The recon plane was heading back to the sea and goes for a landing onto an ocean before being picked up by a ship's crane.
