At this time, General Andy Frost's army consisted of fifteen thousand regular troops.
Among them were two thousand five hundred cavalry, organized into five cavalry regiments. Additionally, there were five reserve cavalry regiments, labeled as reserve because there were currently not enough horses available.
It was not that Anning lacked the funds to buy horses; he had enough money, but the problem was that there were not enough horses available on the market.
Previously, the Great Revolution had resulted in the deaths of many countryside horse-breeding nobles, and no one managed the stables; horses either ran away or starved to death.
Now, the entire France was experiencing a shortage of horses.
Official stables only supplied horses for official posts and cavalry regiments, and Anning's cavalry was not official, receiving no supply quota.
