you'll need about 1850 equite legatis with a 20-level city wall.
or 600 equite legatis, 800 teutonic scouts, and 600 pathfinders.

You aren't going to kill them all. I have 30 in all my villages. I think you would be fine with 20.

So how many troops does he have then? Is it possible that he still has over 20k infantry?

My guess - 15k and 4k.

I smell something fishy... on the 27th he lost 6983 axes and had 13400 left the next day he attacked with 22000 axes. That would mean at one time he had 30,000 and some 11,000 cav. I know you guys work in the negative on your attack villages but some 30k+? And why did'nt he attack with his whole army the first time? Or did he find some way build a 10k army over night?

I thought his 30k axe army had already been spotted before? Why he didnt attack with all of them I dont know. It's possible he was using a load to attack other targets or they were out on long travel raids farming targets.

30k troops isn't a big deal, you can have that many and still have positive crop easily.
When you have that many troops chances are you raid a lot so a good chunk of your troops are out raiding constantly, thats where the extra 10k was. What I listed previously is probably what he has left.
