First, they are comin', fast. Like in 10 seconds the fighting begins. Split your archers, send half of them to the north to support your allies, send your lance carriers to the far east next to your castle as the purple horsies are about to attack it and kill the blue axes with the rest of your guys.
But wait, there's more. First attack done, but more purple horsies are on their way. In the intervening 5 minutes move all of your archers to support the yellow troops, train some lancers and keep them next to your castle. Kill the knights when they arrive.
Now it's time to kill the blue boys off (north west corner). Use a decoy archer to drag their covering force of 3 axe fighters, 1 scout and 2 scouts away from their positions. The 2nd and 3rd group of axe fighters are far to the north, don't advance until they wander down to you.
Burn 'em all. It's fun.
Once the blue town is rubble, you can try to rush the purple storehouse but you generally won't get it in time. The best way is to send some archers to kill all their serfs so that the horsemen starve to death. In the meantime a valiant last stand by your men against their mounted soldiers is, well, useless, but it saves feeding you having to feed your troops later. Eventually their survivors will starve without the serfs so then send in a soldier to knock down the storehouse and that's it, mission over.
