The red line position demanded by the Provisional Republic prompted another meeting of NSTA on 4 May, when the [[Nysdra_Sea_Treaty_Association#NSTA_Council|NSTA Council]] voted unanimously (including the Charterist government's representative) to authorize an allied expedition into Pachaug to restore order and rescue the hostages, and additionally the Council voted to authorize any use of force needed within {{wp|rules of engagement}} to quell the rebellion if it came to it. Unusually, it was decided that Urcea would not conduct the expedition despite the [[Urcean military]] being designated the [[Nysdra_Sea_Treaty_Association#Defense_Coordination_Initiative_(DCI)|lead defense organization]] of NSTA. Instead, at the insistence of [[Quetzenkel|Quetzen]] representatives, a Cronan military would conduct the operation. The [[Chenango Confederacy]], Pachaug's neighbor, was chosen to conduct the operation for two reasons: its [[Chenango_Confederacy#Military|Trinational Army]] was deemed competent to act, and; Chenango held de jure sovereignty over the territory of Pachaug as a technicality under the revised [[International charter city|international charter agreement]], having been transferred from Algoquonan sovereignty at the demise of that state. Accordingly, the Chenango gave moral and political cover for NSTA's actions and ensured that a competent military force would quell the rebellion. On 5 May, the Confederacy voted to deploy its military to Pachaug. The Charterist government voted to allow them into the country as a law enforcement mechanism. The Provisional Republic declared the intervention to be an invasion and began to widely arm and organize those on the barricades, with prominent organizers and mutineers serving as officers for the new Republican militia forces.

On 10 May, the Trinational Army entered Pachoy territory. It took control of the more rural territorial periphery of the country, establishing formal military control over those pockets of land still under the control of the Charterist government, and it began to establish a forward staging ground within Pachoy territory while taking control of what infrastructure existed outside the city.
On 10 May, the Trinational Army entered Pachoy territory. It took control of the more rural territorial periphery of the country, establishing formal military control over those pockets of land still under the control of the Charterist government, and it began to establish a forward staging ground within Pachoy territory while taking control of what infrastructure existed outside the city. After having adequately staged, the Trinational Army entered the city on the morning of 13 May. Over the course of two days, it gradually secured most of the outlying parts of the city, encountering no resistance except at the city's small airport, where a handful of militia forces shot at TNA forces prior to surrendering. By the morning of 15 May, the majority of Pachaug's land area fell under Chenango occupation. The Army purposefully did not advance into the city center, which was now well fortified with barricades and surrounded by the city's iconic channel system, as well as the former Sea Guard base which was also well defended. Instead, it worked with the Charterist government to restore public services and general government in the areas under allied occupation and set into a siege of the two holdout areas in an effort to avoid bloodshed. Later that afternoon, the [[Nysdra Sea Guard]] deployed in a combat capacity for the first time, establishing a blockade of the city. The Charterist government returned to the city, once again holding meetings in a church in one of the middle-ring neighborhoods of Pachaug.
