How many of those were actual military losses though?

First, this is not criticism, just a difference of opinion because I enjoy your historical posts. To put it into the sports terms that you have used against other commanders before, you neglect to look at Strength of Schedule or the talent differential between the opponents. He lead an overwhelming force against a much weaker opponent and won and you have him as one of the greatest, but you punish others because they don't have as many wins with lesser talent against better forces.
