After so much frustration, turns out that this mission is so easy if you know what to do. Here's my strategy :

Ignore everything and advance to the imperial age. I built a wall to the west and sent my initial army there to kill the attacking Orsova forces so they don't harrass my workers and built a wall on the bridge to Darstor to delay the forces coming from that side as well, though I'm not sure if the walls were necessary but I did it anyway just to be safe.

After you reach imperial age, build 4 trebuchets. Build a transport ship and transport the trebuchets up river to the Obluciza base, unload them in front of the gates. They should be in range of the castle. After you take the castle down, you will get a lot of resources. Then you can quickly take them down to the Novoselo and Rahova with the transport ship and destroy their town centers with the trebuchets as well.

Now you have a ton of resources and only Orsova and Darstor left. No need to panic about Darstor's wonder as it's only 2 workers building it so it takes around 20-30 minutes to finish, which is plenty of time to defeat the enemy. Build a university, research chemistry. Now you can research the cannon galleon at the docks. After researching build a whole bunch of them. I've built 8 of them at first and built more as it was needed but sky's the limit. You also need a lot of fire ships to destroy the enemy galleys that wants to destroy your cannon galleons, so research fast fire ship and build about 10 of them as well. After building your fleet, take your cannon galleons down to the Orsova base and watch as your cannon galleons destroy the enemy castle while their monstrous cavalry army watches helplessly.

On to the finale. Take your whole fleet and sail to the Darstor base. Have your cannon galleons shoot their castle while your fire ships destroy any galleys attacking your cannon galleons. After the castle is down, destroy their docks as well or the enemy will keep creating galleys to give you trouble. After that destroy the wonder and mosque using the cannon galleons. Now only the town center is left. Unload your trebuchets where the castle used to be and shoot down the town center with your trebuchets. The town center is south east, behind the wall. Darstor should surrender shortly after.
