My vote is Sun Tzu, as far as I'm aware this 'inspriational and insightful' work of his that CEOs and hipster cunts drool over was actually made to coach chinese aristocrats on the basics of war because they were extremely retarded and kept making ridiculously stupid mistakes.

Eisenhower had to contend with the egos of generals, not only from his own army, but Angloids and Frogs too.

People in the past didn’t have Rome Total War to practice on for hundreds of hours.

These two did tard wrangling on another level.
Bismarck had a delicately weaved diplomatic web that had ensured German dominance on the continent.
On the other hand, Moltke tard wrangled officers and commanders without even his presence in the battlefield by inventing mission command/mission tactics

all capeshit is boring

>>18031308
but alas, William II was too much a tard to be wrangled

>>18031308
Bismarck is definitely either first or second place on that list - not just wrangling Kaiser Willy (for as long as he could), but the entirety of his newly created Germany in its newest and most vulnerable form.

It's a lot harder to pick a single name from it, but if you look at the history of the Soviet Politburo the entire thing rapidly devolves into a group of tards trying to tard-wrangle each other, and shooting one another when the tardation got out of hand.
