"Although mounted infantry may seem capable of performing a series of actions on horseback, they are still just infantry. When they mount a horse, their mobility is enhanced, not their combat power," Ma Chao said helplessly. "Among the miscellaneous Hu, ninety percent are like this."
Sun Ce looked at Ma Chao with a puzzled expression. What does this mean?
"The training and formation of cavalry are very costly, and thus cavalry requires soldiers of high quality. It's not just anyone who can execute a few moves on horseback that qualifies as cavalry," Ma Chao said with resignation. "Currently, most of the cavalry can only be called mounted infantry. They are fundamentally incapable of high-intensity combat."
