I am using about 5-10 but have to be carefull to back up those cities or they get taken over again.

Gets boring after awhile though since you only get 3 defenders per computer city. How boring.

Cav is weak against infantry. Cut off rubber supplies early as you can. Get countries that have excess rubber to declare war or embargo your enemy. Take artillery, like a nice stack of it. Concentrate your cavalry and back it with infantry.
