"This is the count of the Armies of the Djinn, that gathered to pay homage to their Lord.
On the first day, the Army of the City of Brass assembled; of steelshod mortal warriors, a Legion, of companies as many in rank as in file, and there were as many companies as there were files in every company; with them, the fearsome Ghuls of the Earth, in like but greater array; and when they were mustered as one, their General, Ghulgast of the Mist, stood with them, so that all together were as many in rank as in file; and all paid homage to the Lord of the Djinn.
On the second day, the Army of Mount Kaf assembled; of steelshod mortal warriors, a Legion, as many as the day before; with them, the flamegirt Ifrits of the Air, in like but greater array than the Ghuls that went before them; and when they were mustered as one, their General, Shahrokh of the Flame, stood with them, so that all together were as many in rank as in file; and all paid homage to the Lord of the Djinn.
On the third day, the Army of the Sunken Continent of Mu assembled; of steelshod mortal warriors, a Legion, as many as the day before; with them, the mighty Marids of the Sea, in like but greater array than the Ifrits, that went before them; and when they were mustered as one, their General, Dandan of the Deep, stood with them, so that all together were as many in rank as in file; and all paid homage to the Lord of the Djinn..."
To cut a long story short, these three armies are followed by an additional four (incidentally, the Army of Shadow, led by Amir Aamon; the Army of the Secret Flame, led by Amir Bael; the Army of Lilith, led by "her paramour Sammael"; and last, the Lord's High Guard, led by the Sultan of Qamorah) each of the same pattern and each larger than its predecessors.
