sieges

Ive played the game for some time but this is the first time on the hardest difficulty. I thought I read where the castle defenders would not foray out unless they have a 3-1 advantage but during this play through ive had 4 of the 6 fortresses come out. The last one was against Rivacheg where I had 155 vs 370. the first assault was an attempt to get rid of some archers.. it went well except I lost 85 to their 70. I reloaded troops and came back with 155 vs 300. I had 20 sergeants/8 companions and the rest archers. As soon as I began the siege the entire garrison attacks! I was able to kill 200+ but lost 124 and by some miracle the AI let me retreat. My question: does the difficulty level change this formula? thank you
