Maybe Alexander the Great? He is probably not only one of the greatest generals in all of history, but also an extremely good warrior, which is a feat fewer people talk about. Like he was the first to attack an enemy, so his comrades join him.

She would have been about 5 when he was in his mid 20s and even less likely to appreciate sophisticated tank maneuvers

Stonewall Jackson was known as “Tom Fool” by his students at VMI for his droning robotic lecture style. Weird and obsessive but brilliant at the one thing he loved, which was fighting.

Monty comes close, but for the real peak military autism you end up with a competition between LeMay and Hobart.

He should let Field Marshals lead the command instead take main command

Not really. The Field Marshalls are all strong contenders for title of the biggest autists as well - they weren't giving a slightest fuck about any strategic consideration and were just chasing pointless opportunity targets for private aura-farming kek.
With Hitler in charge they had the sliver of chance; with his Marshall autists there would have been none.

What if the US had taken him up on it, back in the day? Would the women really have been "disasters"? Would communities Chinese Americans have been a bad thing?

With fewer women available, China's population would not have grown at the rate that it did. That might have been a good thing.

asian women become docile when satisfied by bwc, so they wouldnt have been a disaster short term, although the asian sons later would.

It would have basically created the same demographic crunch they are seeing now from the one child policy, except many years earlier.
Personally my perspective on immigration has always been that it should be unlimited in number, but restricted to unmarried women under 25.
Demographics of support and opposition to immigration would flip overnight if the country was being flooded with young pussy.

After Washington was elected as first president, he appointed Knox as his Secretary of War and here he excelled to in crafting the first real Army of the United States. Its not as amazing as Napoleon or Ghengis Khan, but I always found Henry Knox amazing for this. Just some nerd who willed his way into power. Would be like some RTS kid who plays Paradox Games all day becoming a successful military commander.
