That seems indeed to be the relevant part.

I do not understand what the percent signs mean, but from "m_damage = 
attack - (attack * defender->get_defense()) / 100;", I deduct that the 
defense is a relative value. I will fix it in the tutorial.

Thank you for your help.

Subject: Re: [Widelands-dev] Meaning of the defense value

Maybe this code snippet is what you're looking for - from
src/logic/battle.cc:

uint32_t const hit = game.logic_rand() % 100;
if (hit > defender->get_evade()) {
// Attacker hits!
m_last_attack_hits = true;

assert(attacker->get_min_attack() <= attacker->get_max_attack());
uint32_t const attack =
attacker->get_min_attack() +
(game.logic_rand()
%
(1 + attacker->get_max_attack() - attacker->get_min_attack()));
m_damage = attack - (attack * defender->get_defense()) / 100;
}
