Numbers don’t mean that much tho. Eg alexander decimated the whole Persian empire in just 4 battles.If we go by number of battles won then Napoleon Bonaparte would come out on top:
Nah, he is not better than Caesar. In fact he isn’t better than Hannibal of Carthage. Khalid defeated the sassanid and Byzantine armies when they were at their worst. Infact, the Byzantine remained long after his death about 800 years more. Caesar conquered the Gauls. The battle of Alesia alone is the greatest reason he is the best of the best.The sword of Allah, Khalid bin Walid

I agree with you on that point. However, Napoleon was very close to uniting continental Europe and could've won Russia had he not lingered in Moscow for too long as winter came closer.Numbers don’t mean that much tho. Eg alexander decimated the whole Persian empire in just 4 battles.
The battle of lake trasamine is the greatest ambush, he wiped out entire Roman army and the consul. How can I forget cannae where he killed more than20% of Roman adult population about 86000Hannibal
The Romans kept having nightmares about Hannibal for a long time after his death.
Persia was the greatest superpower , infact they burned Athens not that long ago. So being outnumbered and still obliterating them was impressive.The Persians were commanded by a particularly weak, ineffectual leader.
Also, Darius was a coward, dude was fond of running away.The Persians were commanded by a particularly weak, ineffectual leader.
As the man who you bootyclap constantly (trump) would say it “I don’t like losers”Adolf Hitler, he had whole world against and lost due to winter in Stalingrad

Arguably, compared to other historical European leaders Napoleon came the closest to uniting Europe through conquest; Napoleon's quote "I wished to found a European system, a European Code of Laws, a European judiciary: there would be but one people in Europe" pretty much sums up his intention to recreate the Roman Empire and coalesce all Europeans into one Nation.
Another thing is that Napoleon came from very humble beginnings. Caesar came from a very, very old and prominent Roman family. His father was a senator that governed the province of Asia and they already had connections to the elite in the Republic. Alexander's father Philip of Macedon, conquered most of Greece and became the Hegemon of the region, in addition to also reforming the Macedonian army. He even planned the actual invasion of Persia before he got assassinated, a plan that Alexander carried out.Besides Alexander the Great, who else could compete with the darling of Venus, Julius Caesar?
You should read about Saad ibn Waqaas he decimated Persians so deeply they’re wiped away from history foreverNumbers don’t mean that much tho. Eg alexander decimated the whole Persian empire in just 4 battles.
