From a song, based in history
The relief army was now ready for a final push. At around 6:00 pm, the Polish king ordered the cavalry to attack in four contingents, three Polish groups and one from the Holy Roman Empire. 18,000 horsemen charged down the hills, the largest cavalry charge in history.[46][47] Sobieski led the charge[20]: 661 at the head of 3,000 Polish heavy lancers, the “Winged Hussars”. […] The charge quickly broke the battle lines of the Ottomans, who were already exhausted and demoralized and would begin to retreat from the battlefield.
To be fair, it was the largest cavalry charge in history. Between 30 and 40000 horsemen charging is insane. To put that into a comprehendible context, the charge of the rohirim you see in the Return of the King had 5000 horses. The largest charge in the Napoleonic wars (iirc) was Murats desperation charge at the battle of Eylau with 11000 cavalry, which somewhat won the day and is considered one of the great cavalry charges in history.
This charge was 3 to 4 times larger. It was truly a hurricane of vengeance.
30-40000 sounds like a safe bet
Or never ask a Lithuanian or a Pole what happened in 1795.
Never ask a Chinese what happened in Tiananmen Square in 1989
