Middle Eastern and Asian armies tended not the "charge" in the direct sense of the word. But really the charge at Eylau is considered the largest ever achieved in the history of the world.

@musiclas1 Certainly a great charge but the "greatest cavalry charge in history" is a big claim. Greatest by which criterion? Numbers? There is plenty of competition for that title and before anyone gets in a knot about the issue, please recall the many large Middle Eastern and Asian armies through the ages that were made up almost entirely of cavalry. In Europe, their battles don't get much attention but that doesn't mean they should be ignored.

@Jabthecat Napoléon s'en était servie à la bataille des pyramides, dix ans plus tôt.

@DT195909 Je me trompe pe mais la formation en carré n'est pas encore utilisé a ce moment...

You'd be surprised how long that takes - to be caught by a charge while trying to form squares is worst than being caught in line. The line's weakness are it's flanks - if there's enough cavalry to flow around the flanks, or the line breaks and the cavalry get's through - the line is done.
Impressionnante, bien filmée, mais pleine d'erreurs !
Les cavaliers - surtout la cavalerie lourde - ne chargeait pas ainsi, mais botte à botte.
- Et pas sur une ligne.
- pas si désorganisé.
- On ne galope que sur les derniers 50-70 m.
- Et que fait en 1807 ce drapeau... du Consulat !!! :shock: :shock: Si je ne trompe, on ne charge pas avec son étendard, surtout pas en première ligne, tout seul. C'est un cadeau à l'ennemi !
- Ennemi qui ne se met même pas en carré !
Beau mais faux !
