فَقُتِلَ مِنْ خَيْلِ خَالِدِ يَوْمَئِذٍ رَجُلَانِ
So two men from Khalid's horsemen were killed that day.
خَيْلِ horsemen of
This is the first noun of an 'of' possessive pairing with the name that follows: the horsemen belong to Khalid. Standing as the first link, it drops any 'the' of its own and leans on the owner-name behind it for definiteness, and its genitive ending comes from the preposition before it.
أَيْنَ أَحْلَاسُ الْخَيْلِ أَيْنَ الْفُرْسَانُ فَيُقَدِّمُونَكُمْ
Where are the steeds of the horses? Where are the horsemen? Then they will bring you forward.
الْخَيْلِ of the horses
This definite noun is the owner half of the pair begun before it, in the genitive 'of' slot, completing a 'of the horses' chain. Its 'the' marks the whole pairing as definite. Its place right behind the head noun supplies the 'of' link with no separate word.
