You just have to concentrate on a one ( or two maximum ) wall sections and ensure you take and hold them . For that you will need skilled units perhaps some big choppa elites of some sort I guess . I've also read somewhere in the forum ( not tested ) that Galatikoi Kludolon do a great job at walls , available at many places .

After that if you feel like exploitiing A.I. dumbness send some crappy unit to take the rest of the walls and gates , but at the very least clear the sections where ( /if ) you're going to fight close to and get some extra help while fighting the defenders .

THEN Enter the city with the rest of the army and butcher them .

That should cut your losses .

Me ? I got issues with the town square unbreakable troops + bonus the s****y pathfinding around there . I always try my best to rout them and push the end battle button , to save some more people .

It seems the last stand of the defenders comes with a stupidity penalty for my troops . God I hate that .
