Between attrition (lost in battle), needing to leave troops behind to control conquered territory, and longer supply lines, shouldn’t the armies have gotten significantly thinner and weaker.

Step 1. Invade area
Step 2. Battle
Step 3. If you lose, game over, if you WIN then you get to loot everything around you.
Step 4. Use that loot to hire more mercenaries/soldiers, plus since you already won a big battle people are more willing to fight for you.
Step 5. Repeat this process until you lose a battle or run out of enemies.
