The stupid and average outnumber the smart - by a wide margin.
I'm not sure why you think the smart would win that battle.
brains and cunning LoL
That literally hasn't worked since wars were 2000 people on a battlefield. Even then, it was usually down to who was numerous.
How well did brains (and billions of dollars and expensive gear) do in Afghanistan, Vietnam, Somalia, etc?
The only reason we ended up winning the American Revolutionary War was logistics - the UK couldn't keep fighting the war due to expenses and their empire spread too thin. It wasn't any particular battle. And, by all accounts, the UK had a ton of more smart people on their side than the paltry numbers the US had on their side.
If smarts won wars, the smart people probably would have already tried that. LOL
One could say the brains and cunning worked out all right for the Afghans or the Viet Cong. Though it was really not much to do with that
