    I need some help on attacking AI cities....

    Maybe you should built some swordman, axeman and catapult if available. And choose "city raider " promotions for your unit if you intend to let them attack cities. Spearmans are only useful to deal with enemy mounted units as horse archers, chariots and so on.
