Yeah, I had a similar issue, I wouldn't call it a problem though. I had two Yari peasants and my retainers and by first holding the corner (they always seem to climb the wall at the closest corner) I managed to rout almost a full stack of Samurai and Yari men. I had to flee from their arrows alot, but so long as you stay close to the walls then the cover is good. Then the archers and the general attacked. To make the archer climb the walls, just hide at the opposite end of the fortress and then charge them when they get to the wall. Then they have to face two units basically one by one. The general killed a few of my dudes and then fled. However, this was on the smallest castle. I tired a similar thing with a few more guys against a few less of theirs on a big castle and got surrounded and picked apart.
