It's the first part of the following -
http://runegate.org/whitewall/wiki/Story%20from%20the%20siege
Doesn't really cover what the Shargasi are doing but explains Jorkandros's thinking and what the rest of the Lunar army was up to.
In general terms I think the Lunars badly overstretched themselves launching the attack but the defenders were pushed to their limits because at this point the fortress is seriously undermanned. That's why the Humatki find themselves fighting a desperate battle with no hope of reinforcements - the rest of the defenders are struggling to hold the gate.

At this time I think "battles" is an exaggeration. More accurately described as skirmishes. Neither side have enough troops for battles. After the failure of the Bat, the arrival of Tatius and various clans from Sartar both sides have enough for more serious fights. There's an attempt by Lunar trolls to take the gate one night which Jane and I have been writing about.
