Gill's Notes on the Bible
Now as soon as this letter cometh to you, seeing your master's sons are with you,.... Sons of Ahab, and some of Joram, and all either the sons or grandsons of Ahab:
and there are with you chariots and horses; military ones:
a fenced city also: as Samaria was, well walled and fortified, and able to hold out a long siege:
and armour; of all sorts, to arm themselves and people with in their defence.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
A fenced city - Or, âfenced cities.â If Samaria had refused to acknowledge Jehu, many other Israelite towns would have been sure to follow the example.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible

It was the same as if he had said, "Ye have no means of defence Israel is with me: if you yield not up yourselves and the city, I will put you all to the sword."
