The Mongols were the first modern army because of their strategies and weapons that were used. Genghis Khan communicated very well and through it he actually started the army itself, gaining followers and discussing strategy to invade. His method of communication helped him to achieve that edge on the battlefield and could be the main reason that he created one of the largest empires in the world at the time.
I feel that his experience on the battlefield has led to a much better strategical approach in his invasions that could be his advantage compared to other leaders that did not have.
