Alexander? Hannibal? Ghengis Khan?

[Scott from the Left Coast]

It's a very tough call...probably Hannibal in the ancient days. In modern times, Robert E. Lee; Georgy Zhukov; Erwin Rommel; and yes, Patton, could all be considered.

Zhukov led the largest mass army in history...of course he had General Winter's help at a critical moment.

I vote for Ghengis Kahn. He conquered all the way into Eastern Europe, set up a dynasty and his grandson was the ruler in China who met Marco Polo. Kublai Kahn I think.

Alexander and Hannibal were dead ends.
