This is new information. Either that or I'm fantastically oblivious, which is also possible, as I tend to do my posting after one in the morning.
Applying the math and assumptions from the previous figures , that would put Darkshire's forces at between 1000 and 1500 soldiers.
I know there are small villages, but I'm near-to-positive Darkshire doesn't have any outlying military outposts or mines, and there's a fair amount of farmland in the area immediately surrounding the city - or at least, that's how people seem to be playing it, and the 'rolling fields' part of the 'verse description seems to bear it out.
The other issue with drawing Primes away from the defense is that pretty much every Prime on the defenders side is either deeply invested in Darkshire specifically, a strategist themselves, or not exactly what you'd call a humanitarian. The only outright hero in the group who comes to mind is Ash...ish.
