Heraclius assembles a large army (one hundred thousand men) consisting of contingents of Greeks, Slavs, Franks, Georgians, Armenians, and Christian Arabs.
He establishes a base at Yaqusah (near Gadara), close to the edge of the Golan Heights, protecting the vital main road from Egypt to Damascus.
The base is protected by deep valleys and precipitous cliffs, well supplied with water and grazing.
