I've never seen the riddle before, but if I had to take a guess I would say one of the people that went to war was pregnant and had twins before dying.

19 people went to war against 2 people. The 19 killed one enemy and they brought back the remaining 1 as a prisoner.

One of the 19 was pregnant and gave birth to twins whilst at war.

Many ways to answer the riddle...needs to be re-worded or more specific.
