major port city at the time was acre. the city of acre on the northern coast of present-day israel was an entry point for the maritime trade that flourished across the mediterranean. it was an actual economic and political capital of the crusader project in the middle east. it was very important for them because the port of acre is huge. the city is large. king guy has not gotten any men, but he knows that he has to give them a target, something to fight for. and he decides to attack the city of acre. if they could capture it, they could defend the coast, then, and mount a charge on jerusalem. without acre, they really had very little hope of doing it. learning of the attack, saladin marches the full might of his army to acre. but what saladin is not counting on is european
the city. solodyn leading from the front but he s unable to breakthrough into acre. the result of the battle of acre is that richard the lionheart does something no one else able to do. he hands solodyn his first loss at the hands of crusaders. so solodyn is forced to retrieve and now the crusade everies almost being wiped out of the holy land are recons substituted and reinvigorated and they are ready to recapture jerusalem.

more suspicious he gets. he flew into a fit of rage, something that he was known to do. he took the hostages and he marches them out acre and he had them executed in cold blood. it is a terribly ruthless and brutal thing to do. it is something utterly devastated solodyn completeliy and he tries to rescue the people but too late. he s devastated. his secretary says he cries. richard turns his full attention to jerusalem. richard realized that his best bet to build an attack against jerusalem is to march
he used his diplomacy and violence. the crusader kingdom is in turmoil. the politics of jerusalem are horrendously complicated. we have different factions and vendettas and worrying families. an easter mass all rolled into one. a new ruler emerged on the throne. ghee
