Can never successfully loot villages

I joined a faction and tried to loot some villages. I have tried to loot maybe 15-20 villages but 90% of the time I get attacked by a count, jarl, sultan, etc. I end up losing my entire army or alternatively lose half covering my retreat and lose all my moral. I can never build a big army and keep it. What am I doing wrong? Should I not join a faction to loot villages? I am using a mod called age of calradia enhanced idk if that makes a difference
