'Cavalry is useful before, during, and after the battle', as Napoleon put it! Really interesting video, I've been reading about Napoleonic tactics on and off for 20 years, but still learned something new from this. On a small technical point, in English the straight heavy cavalry weapon would be called a sword, not a sabre, as it is not curved. Also, on skirmishers, one of their main purposes is obviously to stop the enemy doing the same to you - to prevent them scouting, harassing your battle line, etc. Once one side is using skirmishers, the other side has to introduce them as a defensive measure.

Whenever I've been in 'Militaria' stores I have always noticed that 'Cavalry sabres' were often shorter and most equipment for cavalry was designed to be lighter and less burdensome as a horse has enough of a burden carrying a man without carrying his pack too? If sabres were longer then they were thinner as the balance on a saddle is not so troublesome when on two feet. Also, there is the consideration of the horse itself when it comes to swinging a sabre at an enemy with a horse's head and body thrashing around. 'Piercing' would be preferable to 'slashing', wouldn't you say? When an arm is raised, then your centre of balance is lost and a mere nudge would likely knock you from the saddle!

2:26 The British Dragoons were actually a special case here. During the mid-1700s, the British converted all of their cavalry (referred to in the British Army as "horse") units to Dragoons, in order to pay them on a lower scale (a legacy of the Dragoon's mounted infantry origins). So all British cavalry units in the Napoleonic period were officially called Dragoons, but the name was more of a financial scam than any reflection on their actual functions. The British distinction between Light and Heavy Dragoons was the truly functional one, since it reflected which set of roles a particular unit was intended to fulfill.

Yeah, the army converted them all into dragoons in 1768, though the process began in 1748. Light dragoon companies were added to regiments in IIRC 1752 or 1753, but full-regiments come only with the Seven Years War, and indeed were meant to be the analogues to the continents' hussars.

I like the Reichskangaroo being the symbol for "Not Crazy Enough".

Great video! Thanks for all the information. I just want to add one point regarding the use of cavalry against artillery: The problem of these attacks was often that the squadrons had no real possibility to destroy the captured guns. According to “Keegan (1976): The face of battle”, during the Waterloo battle, artillery men were often fleeing towards nearby friendly infantry columns when facing a cavalry charge. The cavalry was therefore getting the ground with only few casualties but were unable to do any harm to the abandoned guns with just sabers equipped. A common practice during this time was to use nails to seal the touch holes of the guns but therefore a cavalry man has to get off his horse what many refused to do as a sense of status. If no infantry unit was following the cavalry charge to deal with the guns, the squadrons had to leave the captured canons to go on for further tasks. This gave time for the artillery men to get back to their position and continuing their work and made the attack quite useless. Of course this was just possible if the gunners got aware of the charge in time.

For more on this topic, I highly recommend Rory Muir's "Tactics and Experience of Battle in the Age of Napoleon" It does an excellent job exploring the tactics, doctrine, and practical use of all branches of land forces during the war, as well as comparisons between mostly French and English. It also deals with raising regiments, procurement, command and control, and expectations while on maneuver. For the Napoelonic wars, perhaps more than anything previous, displayed the vital necessity of the war of maneuver. Napoleon's superior organization and supply allowed him to move faster, and concentrate his army more successfully than any other nation, enabling him to defeat empires. A key example of this is the difference between his Italian Campaign of 1796/97 and the Ulm campaign of 1805. In the first, Napoleon was able to concentrate his army and defeat the austrians in detail. The austrians thought they learned their lesson, and kept their army far more concetrated for the Ulm Campaign. The result was Napoleon being able to outmaneuver and entrap the entire austrain army.

That moment you realise you were playing mount and blade in exactly the right way

Superb observation of the Napoleonic wars cavalry in less than 25 minutes, would not believe this is possible, many thanks! As regards the cavalry attacking the infantry - there was a lesser known in the West retreat of the Neverovsky division to Smolensk under constant attacks of the French cavalry. The nuances were that: 1) at least 2/3 of the soldiers and a majority of the officers of the Russian division were just recruited/ never saw an action; 2) they were attacked by probably the best and most experienced part of the best of the world cavalry - led by probably the best cavalry commander f the time Murat; 3) there were 2 French cavalrymen per one Russian infantryman; 4) there were in total at least 40 French charges during the whole day of the retreat. French attacked relentlessly and bravely and managed in some cases (on the turns of the road, etc.) to chip off some small formations of the Russians but the main body of the division (to remind - for a majority of its members this was the first real action) was like a steel wall. Moreover, Neverovsky managed to send his artillery ahead and plotted an ambush upon the French cavalry! Following which the French gave up. They later complained that their horses were “too tired” to continue. Hmm, the Neverovsky division covered the same way by foot under the constant attacks (and marched a twice longer way than the French cavalry the day before). The next day the depleted but still highly motivated Neverovsky division repelled numerous attacks of the French forces (again, substantially exceeding them in numbers) at Smolensk covering the deployment of the main Russian forces. Many consider this successful retreat as a critical point that did not allow Napoleon to trap the Russians at Smolensk and thus to destroy the Russian army (he had s substantial superiority in numbers at that time). Neverovsky, in my view, is one of the most outstanding and forgotten heroes of the Napoleonic wars - he was a truly “soldiers’ general” explaining to his soldiers every maneuver and caring about them in and out a battle. The soldiers paid back with the outmost trust.

A unit of Currasier and a unit of Royal Dragoons spot one another, on a hot summer day in northern France. They form dense orderly lines opposite ends of a fallow field, waiting for the charge, only 500 meters apart. From both sides the call is given the horses start! First with a leisurely walk, then to a trot, then they gallop! By the time they reach fifty meters the hoof falls are so quick, it is as if their horses are flying o'er the dusty ground. The men draw their blades, glinting in the hot sun, their warcries join the the deafening thunder of the charge. Then at ten meters the horses come to as hard a stop one can expect from horses in formation. At three meters both lines are stopped cold. The men tentatively lower their weapons and look to their officers. "Uh... shit." Says the English Colonel. "Hey, umm... Ugh, do any of you frenchies speak English?" The French Colonel comes forward, "Ouais, a bit." "Great, great... look I kinda saw this going differently in my head" spoke the Englishman scratching his scraggly beard. "I also thought this would be a bit more..." the Frenchman gives a shrug "/dramatic/." "Perhaps", piped up the French Colonel, "Perhaps we should back up and try again?" The English Colonel looked to the ground, tipped up his cap wiping away the sweat accumulating on his brow, and shifted in his saddle. "It would just feel */weird/* now." "Ouais, it would indeed" "Maybe we should both back up and then at a hundred meters..." "...We both turn about face and go our separate ways. Forget this ever happened." "Exactly, toodles my good man." "Adieu." ~*THE END*~

Excellent installment!!!

in 1760 Ridinger, a riding master writes about the officers compressing the line form the sides by riding their horses sideways to the middle, this will compress the line to the point where it will bulge forward int he middle, greatly aiding in the horses committing to the attack. similarly the horse will be very keen to hide behind the horse next to it when charging, and this is why an echelon attack is much more likely to be effective, as the animals want to follow the herd under stress, and yet avoid the enemy, this can result in a surge that rampages through the enemy, in particular if the leading horses are well selected, also the first three strides of gallop are almost impossible for the horse to shy or stop, so that might be part of why a formation might strike the gallop really late. also a formation only striking the canter at 20-30 yards might be seen to 'have attacked in trot' especially in high corn, like at waterloo. another factor in the 'shoot only once' factor is the smokescreen the infantry will lay in front of themselves and not be able to target at all after the first volley, the horses suddenly appearing from the mist. the reason it is probably not very effective to charge cavalry with cavalry in the napoleonic era is the lack of wedge formations, so often employed from about 1000-1650 (and earlier in Macedonian and Byzantine cavalry), wedge formations allow the horses to litteraly split the enemy units mass, and if done right is not hard to do with actual horses. there are very clear depictions (chronicles of the crusades 1470s france, for instance) of these wedges being used cav vs cav. this comes down to 3 factors: -lances, armour and riding quality. all three of those things fell out of favour around 1650 with the lack of localized horse supply, allowing much greater education of the animals. a well trained horse with an armoured rider with a couched lance can control enemy weapons in front of his horses head, that is less easy for a sabre armed trooper. The lances used in the napoleonic era are much shorter and lighter and are held in the middle, greatly reducing range. the wedge is therefore able to allow the horses to work as a snowplough, something hardly possible for later cavalry. it has to be said that gunfire was employed en masse from at least 1400 onward, (and first used on the European battlefield in 1340) and fully plate armoured cavalry does not crop up until 1360, and continues until at least 1644 in the west and later int he east. so gunfire cannot be the reason for the disappearance for this type of tactic, but horse supply correlates much better.

@Taeerom

6 жыл бұрын

The wedge was not used, as the movies and computer games show, as a plough. It was in many ways similar to the echelon in the attack, weaker but more flexible than a line. The great advantage of the wedge (or rhombus, which is basically the same), is that you can turn the formation 90 degrees really fast. At the time the wedge was popular, the cavalry charge against an infantry formation was a game of chicken. If the foot broke formation, the horse could charge home. But if the foot stead fast, the horse had to break off. With a line formation, you get a better charge, but the formation is slow to turn. That means you have to break off the charge early. What you can do with a wedge, or rhombus, is to switch the leading horse on order. So that the tip of the rhumbus turns into the side, and one of the sides turns into the tip. This makes the wedge and rhumbos formations to be able to get closer to the enemy before calling off the charge and turn. Making it much harder for the enemy officers to keep their men steady in their formations. And if the lead horse sees a crack in the infantry, he knows he can charge home.

Did the heavy cavalry still use horses specifically bred for the charge? It would explain part of the cost and gives a reason for the cavalry performance at Waterloo, as the French probably did not have enough of those warhorses left. when they rapidly rebuild their army. Light cavalry probably could make use of basic riding horses which were also used in the civilian sector.

@REgamesplayer

That is not that maintenance means. It would be equipment cost. To maintain it means to support. To support heavy cavalry should be essentially the same as to support light cavalry. Sure, horses might eat a little more, maybe those units are more prestigious and thus are getting paid better, but those are such neglible costs that they are not worth mentioning. Heavy costs incurs when nation needs serial crafted items. Cost of something significantly drops down when nation establish proper infrastructure to create such items en mass. I do not see how those horses could be more costly. Horse is a horse. It will fuck with other horses just as well, thus ensuring numbers. It will grow the same as other horses. Maybe due to size it will eat little bit more, but that is meaningless. It is a horse, not a king. The only real price increase could come from need to armor their heavy cavalry, but once again, not all of them were armored to begin with. Furthermore, armor is not that expensive. We are not talking about full body armor of knights. At that time, medium armor like of Roman legions were most widespread. Saying that Nepaleon era nations could not afford that Roman empire could produce en mass is just an insult to armies of that time.

@barthoving2053

A horse is not a horse as a dog is not a dog. You have different breeds for different purposes. If the breed is rarer the cost to buy is higher. Just look up modern horse trading. Prices go from around a thousand dollar to 50 million dollar. As horses need to be replaced the maintenance is higher if you've more expensive horses to replace. Furthermore some breeds of horses require more maintenance than other. For an simple example some horses you can leave in the rain without problems, others need to stay in warm stables or get sick. And about scaling the economy during peace battle horses do not get bred much as the demand is limited. In war the demand rises but the breeders are then at war and then it still takes a couple of years to get a functional horse.
