Since the First Crusade came, many Crusader countries were established in the East. People in Europe called the places where the Crusader countries were located overseas, and the Crusader countries were therefore called overseas countries.

The peak of the Crusades was 1113. With the help of another round of European jihadists, the Wessex dynasty that ruled Egypt conquered the whole of Egypt. Before that, with the help of the Crusaders led by the King of Poland in order to get rid of the crime of killing his brother, They were able to conquer Cairo, and now all of Upper and Lower Egypt fell into their hands, and after that there was a period of peace in the Overseas Lands.

During this period of time, the overseas countries were busy consolidating their countries, resettling immigrants from Europe, and eliminating the dangers on the pilgrimage road, and the overseas places showed a flourishing color for a while.

Due to the unimpeded sea and land routes, there is an endless stream of pilgrims and immigrants going to overseas places. Many of them have settled overseas in this way, and the Crusaders countries welcome this very much. For them, after all, only Latin people It is reliable.

There are also more and more Latins in overseas places in this kind of immigration activities, but they all generally have one characteristic, that is, except for the big inland cities, these immigrants are all distributed along the coast.

Among the many immigrants to the Holy Land, the English are undoubtedly the most special group. They came here to join the Wessex family. In Britain, Egypt is equivalent to a New England, attracting Normans. The Anglo-Saxons, disaffected by the rule, went.

However, the war did not end because of the continuous stream of armed pilgrims coming by sea and land. These nobles and civilians hope to fight for God in the Holy Land, and the Crusader countries can't just leave them there, because They knew very well that these Crusader soldiers were an important part of the army and an important source of taxation for the Crusader countries.

As a result, in overseas places, crusade activities called "village burning summer camp" appeared by later generations. Once any large-scale crusaders arrived or the number of crusaders accumulated to a certain level, the crusader countries would launch campaigns against Mu. The wars of the Sri Lankan forces are sometimes aimed at the Islamic tribes in the desert, and sometimes they simply burn those Islamic villages that refuse to obey.

Later, with the passing of the first generation leaders of the Crusaders, conflicts between the Crusaders countries also increased, and the jihadists had new uses, but as the Crusaders countries discovered that this would only consume the jihadists After the will and energy brought about a decrease in the number of participants, they urgently stopped these activities. After all, armed jihadists came here for jihad, not for these secular conflicts.

As for the internal strife in overseas countries, due to the complete defeat of the Islamic forces, the Crusader countries faced very little pressure. Under such circumstances, the internal strife naturally became serious.

During the period of the Crusaders' civil war, the Abbasid Caliphate, who could have posed a great threat to the Crusaders, was defeated by Yelu Dashi in the Battle of Katwan, which led to the reckless actions of a series of warlords and careerists in the Caliphate. As a result, the Caliph was simply unable to fight against the heretics.

So Frederick died. People found him drowned in the basin the next day, and a deputy head of the Knights Templar disappeared. It was not until a long time later that people knew that the man was Assassin. spy.

During this period of time, Jerusalem has been slow to respond to Egypt. Although they sent troops to Egypt from time to time, they always believed that this stalemate would last for a long time. Therefore, the kingdom did not react until the whole of Egypt was lost. But it's too late.

The death of Andronica a year later and the recovery of Rome by the church added credibility to these statements. In people's view, the death of the tyrant was God's punishment. After Ka's death, the new government of the Eastern Empire announced that it would allow the Crusaders to pass through their borders, and the Third Crusade officially began to take shape.

The bravery of Mu. S. Lin gave them sweet rewards. The Crusaders finally collapsed before the staunch Islamic warriors. It was the beginning of the reversal of the East's offensive and defensive trend.

The young Saladin took Mecca and Medina as his current targets. The Islamic holy city area was devastated due to the previous war. When Saladin's army arrived, it didn't take long for him to tame Mecca and Medina. the nobility.

This trend of thought aroused strong repercussions in Europe, and eventually led to the Second Crusade. This Eastern Crusade happened to catch up with the good times. The order is invalid, and the Crusaders can continue on this old road.

But his strength was still very limited. Saladin knew that if he wanted to truly gain the power to fight against the Crusaders and even recover the Holy Land, he had to take Egypt.

The troops brought together by the Third Crusade reached a full 12, more than half of which came from Emperor Frederick. During the years of high-intensity wars with the Eastern Empire, this monarch twisted the empire into a rope, rebellious The northern Italian states are now bowing their heads to the emperor, so the power that erupted from the Holy Roman Empire is very terrifying.

The arrival of Saladin was warmly welcomed by the local Muslims, while the Coptic sects did not help each other. Under such circumstances, his army was welcomed into Cairo almost as soon as it entered Egypt.

After finally stabilizing the caliphate, Saladin also discovered that the leprosy king in Jerusalem was dead, so he started the journey to destroy the Kingdom of Jerusalem.

The King of France and Emperor Shinra came to the Holy Land in person. They brought [-] troops, all professional soldiers, and no civilians. After joining the local Crusaders, their strength reached [-].

After discovering Assassin's new moves, this made the fight harder and made them more notorious. They even arrested and tortured a certain crusader because they thought it was too easy for a crusader to gain glory. In this way, of course, spies are sometimes caught, but most of the time it is an injustice.

The Islamic world also mobilized accordingly. The Abbasid Caliph personally led a large army to besiege Syria to ease the pressure in the south. The place where the prophet rose in the past is now full of jihadists from all walks of life. Both sides will fight for their beliefs.

At this time, the Catholic world had fallen into a war with the Eastern Empire, and because of this, the news of the loss of Egypt did not cause much disturbance, and there were not many Western reinforcements.

The loss of Damascus made the Kingdom of Jerusalem panic immediately. Now it is the only Holy Land Crusader country left, and just when Saladin led the army into the Kingdom of Jerusalem and planned to recover the Holy Land, he suffered a disastrous defeat.

In this regard, he has to thank Andronika. If it weren't for the high pressure brought by the monarch of the Eastern Empire, his brutal suppression methods would have caused the whole country to revolt, instead of allowing him to tame the country.

The [-] troops marched into the desert in this way. Their logistics was handled by the Red Sea Fleet of the Kingdom of Egypt, and they fought all the way to the lair of the infidels. This conquest caused unprecedented turmoil in the Islamic world. The third holiest place, while Mecca and Medina are the first and second holiest places.

Since Egypt was conquered by the Wessex dynasty, internal conflicts have been intensifying. The characteristic of the Kingdom of Egypt is that Muslims and Coptic sects still make up a large proportion of the ruling class. Originally, when Edgar Wessex When Sykes was still there, these contradictions were still under control, and all parties could reach a compromise under the composition of Edgar, but after his death in 1155, the contradictions broke out completely, and the fanatical Catholics took control of the political situation.

Under such circumstances, a strong trend of thought has arisen in the crusader countries, that is, God needs us to go to holy wars to destroy the old dens of infidels, namely Mecca and Medina.

It's just that the days of peace didn't last long. The news of the loss of the Holy Land quickly spread back to Europe. The Catholic world, which had just ended the two-year war with Andronica, became restless. A strong doomsday theory began to spread in the world. Spread among the crowd, the theme of these remarks is because of Christians killing each other, which is why such things happened in the Holy Land. Now if you want to save your soul, you can only take back Jerusalem.

After that, Saladin fought against the Catholics in Alexandria with this place as the center. It was not until 1174 that the contention in Egypt followed the Catholics' active withdrawal from Alexandria and went to Cyrenaica to establish the Kingdom of Cyrenaica. And the end.

In contrast, Philip in France and Richard in England are minor characters of the younger generation-although they themselves don't think so.

In taking Damascus he relied primarily on the cooperation of the Baghdad caliph, who launched an offensive from the north, forcing the troublesome crusaders to go north, and then he took Damascus.

The Principality of Aleppo became an important instigator of civil strife. Tancred's descendants first took advantage of the extinction of the Principality of Antioch to seize the country, and then launched a war against the Principality of Edessa, which in turn led to the Kingdom of Jerusalem Joining the fray to defend his vassals, the entire East was at war for a while.

Before the caliph left, he gave the young man a lot of power to develop himself in the west.The Caliph knew very well that due to the existence of the Eastern Empire and the Crusaders, Baghdad was completely out of reach for the affairs of the west, and the expeditionary force sent there could not control it or effectively provide resources, so it simply delegated power.

However, the siege of Jerusalem is much more difficult than in history, because after the fall of the Kingdom's army, the crusades, which are now composed entirely of civilians, control the situation in the holy city. Everywhere is stuffed with fodder, planning to burn everything at the most critical moment.

A large number of Muslims have been expelled from various power agencies, and the Catholics centered on Alexandria intend to let them completely occupy the ruling class, which has caused the contradictions in Egypt to become more serious day by day. Next, Saladin has arrived.

The ensuing battle that broke out was called the Battle of the Blood Field by the world. In this battle, the combined strength of the two sides reached [-], and [-] corpses were left after the battle, more than half of which were Christians.

On the other hand, Saladin's recovery of Egypt made him a hero of the entire Islamic world, and he also stepped up his efforts and began to capture Damascus. If the city can be captured, then the recovery of Jerusalem will be one step closer.

The current Assassins have already highly cooperated with the Abbasid caliphate. If not, they would not have the resources to train so many Latin and mixed-race spies. In order for their spies to gain high positions in the Crusader kingdom, the caliphate would even Take the initiative to let some troops go to "sacrifice".

Frederick died at the hands of the Assassin assassins. Although the Foreign Society of the Kingdom of Jerusalem has been fighting the Assassins over the years, they have never been able to really defeat them, and the Assassins have also changed their operations. According to the model, they consciously collected Latin orphans and half-breeds, and then trained them as spies and sent them back to hide.

But what he never imagined was that this young man who gained such power entirely because his uncle sacrificed his life to save the Caliph would recover Jerusalem in the future.

In 1158, the fleet of the Abbasid caliph conquered Yemen, where he left behind a young Kurdish general, Salah al-Din bin Ayyub, and an expeditionary force composed of Kurds and Turks.

The young leprosy king of Jerusalem defeated him, and Saladin was almost spared. The biggest impact of this battle was that Saladin believed that the time to destroy the Kingdom of Jerusalem was not yet ripe, so he chose to cease war with the Kingdom of Jerusalem.

The civil war of the Crusaders ended with the strong intervention of the Eastern Empire, and finally ended with the Kingdom of Jerusalem and the Eastern Empire joining forces to destroy the so-called Syrian Kingdom that annexed most of Syria. The Holy Land finally ushered in a period of peace.

Cairo did not suffer massacres during the Crusades that year. When faced with the siege of the Crusaders, the city directly chose to surrender. Therefore, only some looting occurred at that time, so the main population of the city is still Mu. S. Forest.

As this large army came to the Holy Land smoothly, then the pressure came to Saladin's side, which was 12 people, and he had not been able to pull out the coastal strongholds of the Crusaders-because the number of Latins in the Kingdom of Jerusalem was lower than that of history. There are too many, so the Latin Kingdom firmly guards the coast.

Under such circumstances, after a series of tough battles, Saladin could only agree that the crusaders could leave the city while retaining their flags, and they could also bring along those civilians who wanted to die with the holy city in exchange for them not Destroy the city.

Naturally, the Kingdom of Jerusalem could not stay out of the matter. They went north to resist the "tyrant of Constantinople", but the result was that the Orthodox army came to Jerusalem, and the army withdrew after the Kingdom of Jerusalem expressed its surrender.

There is nothing to say about this war. Due to the fierce fighting between the Catholic and Orthodox worlds, the Kingdom of Jerusalem could not ask for any foreign reinforcements and could only rely on its own strength. When their field army was wiped out by Saladin, their end also came up.

The actions of the Foreign Society did cause a lot of trouble for the Assassin, but after countless attempts, the Assassin finally succeeded in sending their spies to the top of the Crusaders, and now they activated this dark line.

At this time, Saladin also had his troubles. His power was so powerful that it reminded the Abbasid Caliph of Fatima. Saladin spent a lot of time to regain the approval of the Caliph, because he knew that The caliph's appointment was his source of legitimacy.

The leader of the Third Crusade undoubtedly belonged to Frederick, the monarch of the Holy Roman Empire. Later generations called him Redbeard. Orthodox) war, he achieved the greatest merit against Andronica, so he enjoys a strong prestige throughout the Catholic world.

The failed crusaders returned to their country, and blows followed. Shortly after sending away the European crusaders, Andronica, the new successor of the Eastern Empire, showed a strong anti-crusade stance. He besieged and perished conquered the Kingdom of Syria and divided Syria together with the Abbasid Caliph.

Under such circumstances, Saladin could only temporarily avoid the edge and retreat to Jerusalem to wait for a turning point, and the Crusaders also began a fierce siege. However, just when everyone thought that the fall of the holy city was only a matter of time, Frederick died .

Frederick's death distracted the people in the barracks, and Saladin, who received the signal, launched a full-scale counterattack. The Crusaders outside Jerusalem collapsed. The Crusaders suffered an unprecedented defeat, even in the heathen holy city. On a par with it.

But this peace did not last long. When John II died, the Syrian kingdom was successfully restored. Many people regarded this as the grace of God. After the demise of the Syrian kingdom, the Catholic world had an idea that This is all due to their infighting and ungodliness for which they need to atone.

In 1185, Saladin regained Jerusalem.Compared with the cruel behavior of the Crusaders in history, Saladin's behavior is undoubtedly in sharp contrast, which makes his character praised throughout the world. Of course, some people criticize him for being too merciful, but these have nothing to do with him It doesn't matter, he just needs to enjoy the glory of this moment.

This defeat was undoubtedly a fatal blow to the Crusaders of the Holy Land. It took the Kingdom of Jerusalem ten years to recover from this battle, and this period of time provided an opportunity for one person's activities. At that time, they could not have imagined, that Ah The governor of the Bas caliphate stationed in Yemen will become the biggest enemy of the next Crusader kingdom.

After the war, the French king left the Holy Land with many French and Germans. Only the British king continued to fight. After all, the main force left, and he didn't have much room to move.

Richard finally left with disappointment, but it was also very difficult for Saladin to use this to eliminate the Latin forces in the Holy Land. On the coast of Palestine, the number of Latins there was at least more than 30. Intensity organized and Peter's dream finally came true.

Saladin also had to face a new problem, that is, with the weakening of the power of the Eastern Empire in Syria, his old club, the Abbas Caliphate, could also smoothly send troops to the west, and he had to face the ruler of Baghdad Woolen cloth.

But no matter what, the war can be regarded as coming to an end. The dispute in the holy city has been temporarily stopped as the two sides who can't bear the war signed a peace agreement. A truce, but everyone needs this truce now.
