Excerpt from Tactics, Vol. 2
This, the second volume of tactics treats of the employment of cavalry, field and heavy artillery in field warfare, with due regard to the great influence exerted on them by the lessons of recent campaigns. Although cavalry was unable to win victories with the arm blanche in the Balkans, in south-africa, and in Manchuria, the science of combat as such should nevertheless point out that cavalry need by no means dispense with shock action; that, in spite of all mechanical improvements in fire arms, saber and lance have not, by a long shot, become useless. While I place a high value upon the use of fire action, I am firmly convinced that the days of mounted charges are, by no means, over. The more our opponents are convinced of the futility of a charge against infantry or artillery, the better the chances of our success.
