look, bro. I'm all for assblasting inferior southerners as well but Sherman wasn't a master tactician or truly treat leader.
He simply charged ahead with overwhelming force, destroyed everything in his way as punishment. Didn't spare anything such as churches or hospitals, which landed him in violation of Lincoln's Lieber Code, making him a war criminal who could have been convicted in court if he was prosecuted.
being ruthless doesn't make you the best. it just makes you ruthless.

Except Sherman was repeatedly reprimanded by his superiors for being too lenient with Southern Soldiers who had surrendered.
