Gotta say John Moore, was one hell of a commander and is often forgotten about after Wellington came on the scene. 
Impossible is a word to be found only in the dictionary of fools.

He was probably forgotten about because he died when Wellington came on the scene, not to mention Wellington was the better commander.

Fucking Antoine Lasalle he was badass ''Hussar General'' Who died charging a infantry column and routing them in the process!                                                                           ''Lasalle was temporarily separated from his division and accidentally alerted a battalion of enemy infantry, so he charged them with the 1st Cuirassier Regiment. Lasalle was shot in the chest but continued to charge. The enemy infantry broke and was routed as Lasalle and regiment pursued them. As he charged, Lasalle was shot between the eyes by an Austrian grenadier and was killed instantly. Marulaz tried to avenge Lasalle by leading a hussar regiment against a square of Austrian infantry, driving them to retreat.''
Here's a pic of his last charge :P

I'm going to say Napoleon himself.

Had Napoleon been orchestrating the majority of his battles, including Waterloo, I assure you most of Europe would be French.
