Under those circumstances I am forced to agree. It just seems to me to be an extreme level of myopia on Sauron's part, to be so focused on the siege that he would not bother to ever check on potential reinforcements nor send a message to his lower downs on the field to do so (especially when you consider he has access to a flying force whose PRIMARY use seems to be conveying messages quickly. But then again, that IS sort of one of Sauron's flaws, being unable to see the forest for the trees.
