I'm sure I've read Bouddica (don't ask me how its spelt) army was 100,000 and Melkor knows how many troops Xerxes had at Thermopylae so it is possible to have that larges armies in pre modern eras. and as for providing food orcs seemed to enjoy eating any flesh so I'm sure that can't have been much of a problem
