Cavalry Charge
A "Cavalry Charge" refers to a military tactic where soldiers on horseback, known as cavalry, rapidly advance towards enemy forces. This maneuver is designed to break enemy lines, create chaos, and exploit weaknesses in the opponent's formation. Historically, cavalry charges were a key component of warfare before the widespread use of firearms.
Cavalry units often used speed and mobility to their advantage, allowing them to engage in quick assaults. Famous examples include the Charge of the Light Brigade during the Battle of Balaclava in 1854, where British cavalry charged against Russian artillery, demonstrating both bravery and the risks associated with such tactics.
