Why does the People's Liberation Army
Still retain cavalry units?
The 76th Group Army's certain brigade
The Yushu Independent Cavalry Company
Is stationed on the Batang Prairie at an altitude of over 4,000 meters
Here, the terrain is rugged
The oxygen content is only 60% of that in the mainland
It snows for nearly 9 months of the year
Due to the limitations of the special geographical conditions
The excellent mobility and endurance of the military horses
Give the cavalry unique advantages in patrolling, transporting, supporting operations
And disaster relief
On our country's plateaus and border defense lines
The officers and soldiers are also exploring
Methods like "warhorses + drones"
To digitalize and smarten the mobility of horses
Making it easier to cope with cold and complex terrains
So that they can become
A unique node in the modern combat system
The "cavalry spirit" never fades
Cavalry soldiers always maintain their fighting spirit
For the happiness and peace of the people
They always keep
A charging posture
