The Turkish War of Independence. part 2.

"The Turkish Nationalists under the leadership of Mustafa Kamal have just defeated both the Armenians and the French, but neither was nearly as much of a threat to young Turkey."

Army Nationalists were victorious in the hills.

"As Greeks, whereas everyone before the Greeks could only muster armies of tens of thousands of troops the Greek field Army of Asia Minor or Faam was swelling to over two hundred thousand and they were all about to march on the Nationalist Capital at Ankara."

The Greeks were in the march in full force.

Luz: "I'll tell you guys, it's the two-country contact brew of struggle."
King: "Great."
Gus: "So they need to capture the Nationalist capital city to win."
Sabo: "Pretty much."

"The nationalists knew that the final battle was approaching so they did all they could to prepare for it their most important Act was signing the treaty with Moscow with the Soviets."

The Nationalist army forces were dug in and awaited the enemy to come while making sure the treaty was signed and supported by a new ally if can.

Ironwood: "It's strangely that Russia was an enemy to Turks, but now an importing supplier."
Jacqous: "Business, obviously."
Luz: "Not the Soviet, it isn't."

"This treaty meant that the Soviets would start shopping massive amounts of desperately needed weapons to the nationalists."

Soviet unloaded the crate at Turkay port.

Adam: "It was the same for the White Fang operation work."
Bolies: "Fascinating."

"But, before any of those weapons could arrive. The Greeks made their move." One Greek on the boat spots them.

"On March 23rd 1921. The Greeks attempted their first major offensive since the reconnaissance in the force, after some initial success. Their army exhausted itself and was forced to retreat from the nationalist counter-attack."

"This made clear to the Greeks that they needed to strengthen their army so they mobilized 58,000 native Greeks, plus another 12,000 Ottoman Greeks from occupied Anatolia. By the end of June, the FAAM had over 200,000 men."

Next, it shows the comparison of each army size, the Greeks had about 126,000 men and the Turks had just around 122.000 men.

"The next Greek offensive would pit 126,000 Greeks against 122,000 nationalists. Although it should be noted that the Greeks had a significant advantage in equipment."

The Greeks possess artillery cannons they can use against the Nationalists.

Weiss: "This might be the Nationalists' problem, with the logistics on the Greek side, it eventually be a decisive advantage."
Winter: "That may be so, however. If the battle can be unpredictable, then it may turn into a surprise."

"The only thing the nationalists had going for them was the fact that there are 5000 cavalry were more numerous than the Greeks 1000."

Sabo: "It may seem it a lost cause but the nationalist's spirit and will to fight can only give them for prolonged."
Port: "The cavalry does hold certain things when it's necessary for appropriate circumstances land."
Blake: "If it is the case, they'll have to do the right place and the right time."
Yatsuhashe: "One slip and your whole cavalry will be destroyed."
