The Russian forces numbered anywhere from 9,000< Smith names five regiments, or 15 battalions, while Petre's account states that 17 battalions were engaged to 16,000 men. Until Dupont arrived, Bernadotte had about 9,000 troops available. Bernadotte deployed Dupont's 7-battalion 1st Division, which comprised the 9th Light, 32nd Line, and 96th Line Infantry Regiments. The 8th Light Infantry Regiment from Rivaud's 2nd Division was present, as was Drouet's 7-battalion 3rd Division, consisting of the 27th Light, 94th Line, and 95th Line Infantry Regiments. General of Division Jean Baptiste Eblé led four-foot and two horse artillery batteries, a total of 36 guns.
