Annoying but true to history and common sense. If a large force attacks you with clear superiority you withdraw.

Unfortunately with the ability to only withdraw once when attacked the second time your army attacks the same opposing army there is a battle - so they withdraw on the field when they can't withdraw on the campaign map.

Boring but if can you run in a couple of units of cav you can halt a lot of units from fleeing.
