 Johan,

They didn't rescue the cavalry, who could have simply mounted up at any time and left.  They rescued key terrain that the cavalry had secured for them, setting conditions for success in the approaching battle.

I wouldn't be so offensive as to call it leading around the infantry by the hand, but I suppose the case could be made...  ;)
