Re: Treasurers
Contrary to original post, I think that it's completely realistic that the army retreating to the castle loses control over the province.
Historically, the defender either met the invader in the field with the chance to save the villages in the countryside, or retreated to the castle. In latter case, the invader surrounded the castle, cutting supplies to the castle (siege), while his marauding parties pillaged and burned the countryside. The defender could only watch from the walls.
So the castle is not "ignored", it's besieged.
