Alarmed by David’s advances, Sultan Mahmud II of Great Seljuk (1117-1131) sent a strong coalition army under the esteemed general Artuklu Ilgazi to regain the lost lands in Caucasus and defend Tbilisi from the Georgian attack. The Sultan’s brother Turgul, the Melik of Ganja, Atabeg Gundogdu, and Dubeys b. Sadaka were among the Seljuk commanders. A number of the Seljuk army (600,000-800,000) given in the contemporary Georgian, European and Armenian chronicles seems to be exaggerated, but there is no doubt that the Seljuks had a crushing superiority in numbers compared to the Georgian army. The most probable numbers would be 56,000 Georgians and 120,000-150,000 Turks.[2]
King David’s army consisted of 40,000 Georgians, 15,000 Kipchak auxiliaries, 500 Alan mercenaries and 300 French Crusaders.
