Great Offensive
The Great Offensive ((トルコ語:Büyük Taarruz)) was the largest and final military operation of the Turkish War of Independence, fought between the Turkish Armed Forces loyal to the Government of the Grand National Assembly of Turkey and the Kingdom of Greece, during the Greco-Turkish War. The offensive began on 26 August 1922 with the famous Battle of Dumlupınar and ended on 9 September 1922 with the recapture of İzmir. The Turks amassed around 104,000 men, the largest number since the beginning of the war, to start their offensive on 26 August and to drive the Greek army of over 200,000 men〔Bruce Clark: ''Twice a Stranger: The Mass Expulsions That Forged Modern Greece And Turkey'', Harvard University Press, 2006, ISBN 0674023684, (page 22 ).〕〔International Committee of Historical Sciences, 1980, (page 227 ).〕 out of western Anatolia. A pursuit operation started on a 250-mile (400 km) wide front.〔International Committee of Historical Sciences. Commission of comparative military history, ''Revue internationale d'histoire militaire (Editions 46-48)'', University of Michigan, 1980, (page 227 ).〕
The units of the Turkish Army marched in 10 days (31 August to 9 September) a distance of 186 miles (300 km) while simultaneously fighting the Greek troops.〔International Committee of Historical Sciences. 1980, (page 227 ).〕 The Turkish Army lacked all kinds of motorized vehicles, its forces consisting of only infantry and cavalry units and its logistical support provided by a primitive supply system based on mainly ox-carts.〔International Committee of Historical Sciences, 1980, (page 227 ).〕 Within two weeks, the Turkish Army had driven out the Greek Army completely out of Anatolia.〔Christopher M. Andrew, Alexander Sydney Kanya-Forstner: (''The Climax of French Imperial Expansion, 1914-1924'' ), Stanford University Press, 1981, ISBN 0804711011, page 232.〕 From 26 August to 9 September, the Turks chased the fleeing Greeks 250 miles (400 km) to İzmir, which was later abandoned by the Greek soldiers. Consequently, the Greek occupation of Smyrna, which had begun in May 1919, ended on 9 September 1922 in an event known as the Liberation of İzmir.
