There's just one fly in your ointment. Jillian.
She's shown a distinct penchant for ignoring Ansom's orders and strategy. Heck, look at her actions in this page. She has -no intention- of letting Ansom come to harm; that would include actually picking him up and bringing him into a battle.
Plus, Jillian seems to desperately want Ansom's approval; her method, of course, is by croaking as many of Stanley's units as possible. This is her Achille's Heel - she'll forgo his bonus and his combat ability to show that she can do this on her own.
