The time when each field army was provided with a single division of independent cavalry acting for its own army, no longer exists. These isolated divisions would be powerless before the most meager screen, and opposed to a combination of German divisions they would get themselves successively destroyed. Combinations must be opposed by combinations. In cavalry tactics we come back to the true principle: "Concentrate to fight. " There will be formed in France, as in Germany, large cavalry corps.... It must be observed that these corps can not be enlarged indefi- nitely; beyond a certain limit they would lose the necessary mobility and suppleness; the difficulties of supply and subsistence would become insurmountable; [761 one serious repulse might imperil, for the entire cam- paign one of the most essential organs of the army. We claim that it is Utopian to imagine, as some authors have recently done, that in the next war Ger- many will make a lump of the majority of her cavalry divisions by establishing a corps of eight or ten divisions.
