    The XiongNu took even worse losses....that does reflect the brutal, mutually destroying nature of war =[

    No, maybe they had more cavalry in the earlier times, when they were "only" horse riders. do we know the composition of other Horse people?

    I'm not saying they lost -more- horses, but more rather they lost almost all of their herds, and grazing grounds. They were literally pushed to the desert, and forced to live there.
