Todoh's General abilities are flat out Informed Ability, we are told Todoh is a great General but at no point in time are we shown his a great General. If he was, then people would follow him rather than the guy whose loyalty is extremely suspect. During the Black Knights rebellion the entire thing falls apart in minutes as soon as Lelouch is gone.
Once again if Li Xingke was such a great General when do we ever see this? We are once again told that Li Xingke is a combination of Lelouch and Suzaku, but his clearly at best the third best mecha pilot, and I would tab Jeremiah, and Bismark ahead of him making him 5th best. As for being Lelouch's equal, Lelouch constantly is shown to be his better, and Schneizel is the only person shown to be even close to Lelouch's level. Not exactly a great leader
Code Geass is one of the worst offenders of Informed Ability I have ever seen. We are told Li is Suzaku and Lelouch smushed together but his clearly not, his a poor man version of Suzaku. We are told Todoh is a great general but he does a horrible job onscreen, Cornelia's sole purpose in season 1 was to be with Euphemia, Job for Lelouch, and put up one good fight. It's the same thing with the KoR where we are told they are the best of the best when only Suzaku, and Bismark have any great talent.
Their where two competent leaders, Lelouch, and Schneizel, Lelouch is dead, and Schneizel's in the hands of an idiot.

Todoh doesn't have the power of geass, so he can't make miracles happen regularly. He's able to hold his own against the more powerful opponents and people hold him in high regard. He may not have been extremely gifted as the show says he is, but he did never mess up.
Cornelia I agree, she wasn't as awesome as she was hyped up to be.
Xing was a strategist almost on par with Lelouch, and one hell of a knightmare pilot. He also had experience in politics, something people didn't have.
Schniezel is still smart as ever, he just uses that intelligence to help Nunnally and Suzaku. He was ordered to serve Zero, not to became mentally retarded.
