Guaranteed? I have fought the vaunted Mongol horde and won (against AI, of course, which is ridiculously stupid at times). With very heavy casualties, but that's normal for late armies. No shields = pincushions. Since 2+4+6+4 leaves 4 slots open, I can take other units to compensate for the strengths of my opponents. Artillery, horse archers, jinetes, swords for sieges, more heavy cav, elephants, cannon fodder, plenty of options there.
