## Greek order of battle

In summer 1922, the Greek Army of Asia Minor (Greek: Στρατιά Μικράς Ασίας) held a front of 713 km, extending from Cius in the Sea of Marmara south-east to a bulge around Eskişehir, thence south to Afyonkarahisar, where it turned west and south over the Akar Dağ Mountain and then followed the right bank of the Büyük Menderes River to the Aegean Sea. The line had been established following the retreat of autumn 1921, after the Battle of Sakarya. The Army of Asia Minor had its headquarters in Smyrna (Izmir) and was commanded by Lieutenant General Georgios Hatzianestis, with Major General Georgios Valettas as his chief of staff. It comprised a force of 220,000 men, of whom 140,000 were situated at the front but only 80,000 were counted as front-line combatants. The Army's equipment comprised 264 field guns, 980 machine guns and 2,592 sub-machine guns, as well as 55 aircraft.
The northern sector of the front, from the Marmara Sea to around Eskişehir, was covered by the III Corps, and the southern sector, a wide bulge around Afyonkarahisar, by the I Corps with II Corps as its immediate reserve. The remaining southern sector of the front along the Menderes was lightly held by rear-echelon units under the Smyrna Superior General Military Command (Ανώτερη Γενική Στρατιωτική Διοίκηση Σμύρνης). The Greek combat units were structured as follows, from north to south:
* III Corps, headquarters at Eskişehir, under Major General Petros Soumilas, with Colonel N. Spyropoulos as chief of staff
** 11th Infantry Division under Major General Nikolaos Kladas, covering a sector of 60 km from the Sea of Marmara up to Bilecik. The Bilecik sector, linking the 11th with the 3rd Division, was held by the 16th Infantry Regiment detached from the 11th Division
