Conquest is so loong to be finished and even with great heroes computer is getting on the nerves of the player.
After finishing Medieval in 45 turns with Japan I found some hints: -If I have strong gen. he should conquer the cities with the princesses, greatest leaders led by the comp (here I've screw up because I haven't planned best routes for Nobu, Bismarck, Salladin and that caused few turns more - respect your gens also thous from the pub, because not all of them could regenerate -putting princesses on crucial places gives great kick, but some cities have no logistic posibillity to raise some units !!! - Diplomacy if used properly gives you the great wall untill you clean the terrain -lastly: even with the greatest gens like Nobu with almost paladin set I still lost with some s****tty city in South America defended by the rival of Monty and before that it was attacked three times to cool them down a little (this I've checked to ensure that computer cannot take cities if he doesn't have Jedi vs. Java advantage).

The best tip I got was to go for the capitals, and therefore plan your invasions accordingly.
I'd also add that sometimes it makes sense to leave the towers intact if you expect to have to defend the city after you've captured it.
I have to say my experience has been different with the generals though, most of the time mine can take the cities single-handedly, although to be fair I didn't really start playing conquests until I was grinding out the lit. to upgrade to Gunpowder age.

First EW5 conquest as China. "HOW THE HECK DO I CAPTURE ULAN BATOOR! WHY IS IT SO HARD?!?!" "Nooo, Roman Empire. Why you betray me?" *Restarts as Roman Empire since ot' pretty obvious AI will win*
