Alp Arslan expelled the Turkmens who were harming the interests of the Seljuk Empire from the region.

After this victory, Alp Arslan sent an envoy to the Kipchak Emir Kefşud^[9] and Kefşud came and surrendered, and Sultan Alp Arslan forgave Kafşud^[10]^[11]. Alp Arslan's expedition resulted in the Seljuk Empire capturing most of the lands from the Caspian Sea to Tashkent without a fight^[12]. He visited the tomb of his ancestor Seljuk in the city of Cend^[13]^[14].
