Video spoilers history, starting with the blitzkrieg on Poland
Chapter 714: The Kingdom of Heaven: Saladin's Righteousness
A new sky appeared.
A scene of an ancient Western battlefield appeared on the screen.
A general with a Middle Eastern appearance said to the messenger beside him in the sandstorm:
【Tell Lord Saladin that the King of Jerusalem is here.】
Following his words.
The camera's gaze is also directed into the distance.
I saw a huge army appearing on the distant horizon.
The army was led by a group of knights in bright clothes and on vigorous horses.
In the rear was a densely packed infantry corps holding spears, shields and swords.
In the center of this army.
There is a huge golden cross.
Below this huge golden cross, there is a group of knights who look very tough.
He was leading the army slowly over here.
And he is in the central leading position of this group of knights.
It was a man wearing a silver mask.
His name marked on the sky curtain is Baldwin IV the Leper King, and the army he leads is the Kingdom of Jerusalem and the Crusaders.
Opposite this mighty army.
It is another army with a larger scale, although the average equipment of that army seems to be slightly worse.
But their numerical advantage makes up for this.
And the leader was a man in black robe.
His name written on the sky curtain is Saladin.
The army he led was an Islamic coalition headed by the Ayyubid dynasty.
Two mighty armies.
At first glance, it is hard to tell who is stronger and who is weaker.
I guess the leaders of the two armies also noticed this.
No one will benefit from forcing a war.
So after the two armies entered the battlefield.
There was no immediate battle.
Instead, it was the leaders of both sides, Baldwin IV and Saladin, with their entourage.
The two leaders exchanged views in front of the two armies.
During the entire conversation, the two people didn't say much.
[Saladin: I beg you to withdraw your troops and let me resolve this matter.]
[Baldwin: I beg you to withdraw your troops back to Damascus, and I promise that Renault will be punished, I swear.]
【Retreat, or we will perish together. 】
The two leaders were silent for a moment.
【BALDWIN: Do you agree?】
Saladin glanced at the battlefield and recalled that this terminally ill young man had defeated him when he was 16 years old.
If the two armies fight to the death now, there is no guarantee of victory.
Pushing too hard can lead to risks.
So Saladin nodded as well.
【I agree. 】
[I will send the best Arab doctor to visit you.]
【I wish you peace. 】
……
【I wish you peace too. 】
After a brief exchange, Baldwin IV and Saladin led their troops back.
A battle that could have been a life-and-death battle was eliminated into thin air.
The camera gradually pulls away.
To the accompaniment of epic music.
Saladin's army retreated slowly as promised.
Baldwin IV successfully negotiated and resolved the crisis single-handedly with his personal ability.
It was also under the protection of many armored knights that he returned with the style of a king.
……
This section of the sky video has come to an end.
Netizens’ comments also appeared one after another.
"This is a damn epic scene."
"The camera is invincible! Using visual depth to show the urgency of preparing for battle."
"The protagonist's two-hour performance is not as good as the few minutes of the Leper King and Saladin. The protagonist's aura is completely suppressed."
《So many Vlandian banner knights!》
"It feels inferior to the Aserai precision-guided javelin."
"Saladin's 16 men overwhelmed Baldwin IV's men. Baldwin was only years old at the time."
"The kings of Jerusalem were all above average or even divine, but they were also firefighters who died of exhaustion."
"There is no other way. There are too many insects in other Crusader states. The King of Jerusalem cannot lead this bunch of idiots."
"Saladin isn't that bad after all."
"Wrong! Baldwin is a qualified fire captain, and he did his best. Saladin, on the other hand, is a macho man sent from heaven."
"But as long as Baldwin IV lived, the Kingdom of Jerusalem would not have been destroyed."
"That is true, but the success of the Crusades was based on the division of the Arab world."
"Now that Saladin has united the Arab world, the Crusaders can no longer stay."
"Saladin's military ability is average, but he can coordinate the forces of all parties and establish a united front in a arena where many warlords are fighting for power. This is even better than fighting a war."
"It took thousands of years for the Kurds to produce a leader like Saladin."
"The Crusaders are just a bunch of bandits and lunatics, Saladin is the spokesperson for chivalry!"
Netizens expressed their opinions one after another.
However, the ancients were not very familiar with this period of Crusades history, so they could not express any insights for the time being.
But for the visual content of this movie.
But it is generally recognized.
Qin Dynasty.
Ying Zheng watched the entire clip, although he did not see any fierce war scenes.
But when the two armies confronted each other, Ying Zheng still admired the mighty momentum.
"Yes, the size of the two armies just now is not that large. I'm afraid they only have about 30 to 50,000 people."
“But I managed to capture the feeling of a million-strong army.”
"I have to say, this movie is worthy of being shown on the Sky Screen. It really has something special."
And next to Ying Zheng.
Fusu was particularly interested in Baldwin IV, who was wearing a silver mask, swaying and looking a little weak.
Fusu said:
"The masked King Baldwin IV of Jerusalem, who is described on the awning as the Leper King."
“That’s why you wear a mask.”
"But surprisingly, even though he was wearing a mask and I couldn't see his face, I could still feel a strong kingly aura."
"I can only say that this actor's acting skills are indeed quite amazing."
"I've reached the point where I can perform without showing my face."
"It's a pity that this clip is too short. It would be better if it was longer."
“I believe this must be a very classic movie, definitely worth watching.”
And after this clip from "Kingdom of Heaven".
A new sky curtain appeared, and it was a quote from the Kingdom of Heaven.
Saladin was seen leading a large army to attack a city.
The walls of this city have been breached.
The last remnants of the defeated army blocked the gap in the city wall, preparing for a final resistance.
The gap was filled with densely packed corpses.
Outside the city walls, Saladin's army had flags fluttering.
There was no end in sight for the vast army.
Compare the morale, appearance, and numbers of the two armies.
It is almost certain that Saladin will only need to launch a few more strong attacks, a few days at most.
You can capture this city.
But it is obvious that a strong attack would cost many lives.
So Saladin was conducting a final negotiation.
Saladin persuaded the enemy to surrender because the knights defending the city had no chance of winning.
But the protagonist marked as Balian said firmly:
[“Before the city falls, I will burn it to ashes, burn our holy city, and burn all the things that drive people crazy in Jerusalem.”]
Although the ancients were not very clear about the religious grievances and hatreds in the West.
But now it can be seen that this city called Jerusalem is a holy city in their minds.
A crucial city!
And now, the leader of the city, Balian, threatens to burn down the city.
Many ancient people speculated.
Saladin, who already has the upper hand at this time, would either become furious, forcibly attack the city, or massacre the people.
Otherwise, they will make some concessions and agree to negotiate.
But Saladin remained very calm, he even smiled from the bottom of his heart.
[“If you really burn down this city, things will be much easier.”]
[“So, will you really burn it?”]
Balian said firmly: ["I will raze the city to the ground, and the knights will defeat your army ten to one and inflict heavy damage on your army."]
[“The day the city falls, that will be the day you perish, I swear.”]
You can see that Bellion has a delicate appearance.
At this time, his attitude was very tough.
It was as if he had the ability to defend the city, or at least die together with the enemy.
But outside the canopy.
But Liu Bang laughed.
"Hahaha, this boy named Bellion's bravado is so unfounded."
Liu Bang, who was good at identifying and employing people, took a quick look at the expressions and eyes of the two actors.
Combined with the surrounding battlefield environment, we can make a rough analysis.
Liu Bang laughed and said to Empress Lu:
"Look at the previous sky clip. When Baldwin IV was negotiating with Saladin, Baldwin also threatened the other party."
"If Saladin doesn't withdraw, he will let the two armies fight to the death, or at worst both will perish."
"And at this time, Balian said the same thing."
"But it's obvious from Saladin's expression."
"Saladin knew that Baldwin at that time really had the ability to destroy both of them."
"And now, Balian is just being stubborn because he is at the end of his rope."
And on the sky.
Despite the threat, Saladin, who was in an advantageous position, did not get angry, but said:
[“There are countless old, weak, women and children in the city. If our soldiers are killed, they will die.”]
[“Then all the soldiers and civilians in your city will die as well.”]
Seeing that his bluffing didn't scare the other party, Bellion was too lazy to pretend anymore and said directly:
[“I have nothing to say. Please state your terms.”]
Saladin glanced at his own army in the rear, then said slowly but firmly:
[“I will let all of you live, and I will let you return to the land of Christ.”]
[“Women, children, the elderly, all your knights and soldiers, and your queen.”]
[“I will also return your king to you, and you will see how your gods will deal with him.”]
“No one will be hurt.”
"I swear to God."
When he heard Saladin say that as long as the city surrendered, he swore to keep everyone alive and leave safely.
No dead bodies needed.
Commoners do not need to be reduced to slavery.
Nobles don't need to sit in jail and wait for ransom.
Bellion seemed a little bit unbelievable. He said in disbelief:
[“Back then, the knights captured the city and killed all the Muslims in the city…”]
And Saladin just said lightly.
“I am not them.”
[“I am Saladin.”]
Faced with favorable conditions, Balian agreed to surrender the city.
Both sides avoided further casualties.
Saladin smiled and wished the other party peace.
And Balian also responded with a smile and blessing in Saladin's language.
The two men returned to their respective camps, and just as Saladin was about to leave, Balian suddenly asked:
“What is the value of Jerusalem?”
Saladin turned back:
"It's worthless."
After taking two more steps, Saladin, who had finally recaptured the holy city under tremendous pressure, seemed to have released his stress.
He looked back again.
He gave a slightly mischievous smile.
[“A treasure of inestimable value.”]
……
The sky screen video ended with magnificent music, and a large number of barrages emerged again.
[I love the last line so much, “Nothing”, “Everything”! ]
【A priceless treasure that is worthless! 】
"It's so funny. The defenders have no bargaining chips left, yet they still dare to act cool."
"When did the Crusaders ever care about women and children?"
《The gentlest tone, the most kingly declaration: I am different from them, I am Saladin! 》
"How ironic! The knight's greatest enemy is the most chivalrous."
"There were real knights among the Crusaders, but most of them were actually bandits."
"In fact, for Saladin himself, this dilapidated desert city is really worthless, but it is of great significance to the entire Arab world."
"As the leader of the alliance, if Saladin cannot capture the city, the people will lose their morale."
"Saladin was actually under pressure to not massacre the city in revenge. That was the prevailing trend in ancient times."
"False! In history, Saladin held people hostage and released them only after receiving ransom."
"Historically, Saladin did not release all the prisoners. He still took more than 10,000 prisoners under reduced conditions."
"Saladin didn't collect all the ransom in the end, and basically released the poor people for free."
"The rich paid and left immediately, while the poor were detained for a while. Saladin's brother used his own spoils to exchange for 1000 prisoners from Saladin, and then released them all on the spot."
"Other officials understood immediately and followed suit, demanding the person and then releasing him. "
"Saladin was the first person in Kurdish history and the last emperor in the Arab world who could unite everyone. When he died, his legacy was only 1 gold coin and 25 silver coins, and his funeral was held with crowdfunding. "
"It would have been better if it had been burned at that time, so as to avoid so many disputes later." (End of this chapter)
