Two divisions (the 2nd and 6th) each had an additional artillery detachment, for a total of sixty cannons.

The cavalry division had two brigades of two regiments each, three mounted batteries, a cyclist battalion, a company of cyclists-pioneers, and support units. Its total strength amounted to 2,500 sabers, 450 cyclists, and twelve cannons.
