Siege of Gondor

Minas Morgul launched a massive siege on Minas Tirith, with the intent of finishing off Gondor. With an estamation of 7,000 Easterlings, 18,000 Haradrim (not necessarily counting the men who rode upon 30 Mûmakil), at least 10,000 from Barad-dûr, and at least 10,000 from Minas Morgul, the army was massive, often with estimations of a minimum of 45,000 troops and a maximum of 200,000. The opposing force of Gondor was the Guard of Minas Tirith, an army at least 2000 in size and at most, 7000.

When the forces of Sauron left Osgiliath, the bottleneck city ceased to slow them, they also spread out to regiments that could hold at least five thousand Orcs. They stormed the wall that surrounded the Pelennor fields, and forces from the Barad-dûr and Rhun that had capture Cair Andros then broke the northern part of the wall. The archers were gradually moved in front to go on the siege towers, which steadily approached the city.
