One line summary of your issue
Disappearing levies/garrison troops when reloading save (3.3.4)

Game Version
3.3.4

Please explain your issue is in as much detail as possible.
When reloading a save, a lot of levies and some of the garrison disappeared. These were both full at the time of saving. After reloading, about 300 garrison troops and over 3000 levies disappeared. The Great work in the province is the great walls, which has the upgrades that give a total of +450 archers and +100 heavy infantry per holding as well as +10% levy and +10% garrison. As can be seen in the screenshot, troop types such as light infantry and cavalry only lost a little while 25% of the heavy infantry was deleted as well as all archers.

I suspect that the game does not take the great works effects into account when loading, causing the maximum of troops of a holding to lower and the excess levies to be deleted. When ingame, the great walls work again and give their bonuses, raising the maximum of troops. But by then the troops it provides are already deleted, resulting in much lower available troops.

Steps to reproduce the issue.
1) Have great walls with troop adding upgrades in a province in which you own at least one holding.
2) Save the game when the garrison/levies are higher than when the game was first loaded.
3) Reload the save and see the levies disappear.

confirm this reload error
A work-around is to raise all Great Wall province levies, save game, resign or quit, and reload. Then retire all the levies. You'll still take the hit on the garrison but the levies will be intact. Some of these will go to replenish the missing garrison, leaving you with a hit to the levies of ~300.
Notably, your hit is all in the GW archer or heavy infantry augmentations.
