Well, unless Garlemald is willing to literally topple those tall mountains in Hingashi, I think guerrilla warfare could prove at least annoying, if not effective in driving the Garleans out. But say that the Garleans are really prepare to turn those mountains into rubble and make the whole archipelago uninhabitable. Why bother taking Hingashi at all, in that case? If the Garleans' real motivation for conquest is that they must own absolutely every scrap of land, no matter how destroyed it is by the time they get it, then I'm a bit disappointed by that world building. Garlemald's imperial ambitions seem more nuanced than that.
Also, if there's anything I've learned from studying US military history, it's that relatively small groups of combatants hiding out in difficult terrain can give the largest military power in the world a major headache.
