Possible to destroy Kurgan Warband as Cathay?

They are so ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ annoying.

And I don't understand? Am I supposed to occupy cities beyond the wall? I do and I instantly have a billion negatives to control.

It seems like maybe I'm just supposed to raze them?

raise, defend the wall, move down. Confed. Do the terrible demon souls mini game.

They keep spawning infinitely and are only faction you cant kill off permanently. Take the cities outside and gift them to friendly AI act as a buffer.

Not sure they can be destroyed. I rolled up to wipe out that part of the map and saw them there... all (seemingly) 20 armies just hovering near the wall.
I brought up a few armies of my own, wiped them out, occupied the cities... and a few turns later they reappeared.
Rinse, repeat for the rest of the game. Was not fun, but managed to hold them at bay for the next 100 turns.

Nope. Not sure what difficulty you're on, but for me on hard I just garrisoned the bastions with a single army full of peasant spearmen/archers (pretty cheap with the upkeep reduction building) and that + the regular garrison was strong enough to beat them every time they attacked.

Very hard/legendary where your upkeep is higher and they're probably bringing more units may be a different matter though.

Demon souls minigame?

Interesting thought. But wouldn't gifting territory to a friendly AI make them harder to confederate down the road?

I'm just on normal. The ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ upgraded missle towers on the bastion defense sieges are stupidly OP. A bunch of peasant archers and those towers destroyed literally the entire armies before they even reached the walls on normal.

You can dedicate an army to sniping them early and level up easy or you can let them metastasize so they can break the wall. I had one wall break because I got sloppy and tried to take permanent control of the chaos wastes. As I recovered, several large stacks came through and I had to use Maio Ying (just back from a tear drop mission) to take out two stacks. Since I play on normal, I found this battle pretty exciting because the results were not guaranteed.
