Saladin & the 3rd Crusade - The Third Crusade - Extra History - #3

Saladin had just taken Jerusalem which meant that it wouldn't be long before a Crusade was called. He had some time to prepare thanks to infighting amongst the English and French kings, King Richard I and King Phillip II. So he will... do nothing! Let's go on a journey together folks and watch how Saladin begins to lose power through a series of mistakes and ill-considered gift baskets.

Among the easy victories of the time, was Tripoli. Remember de Ridefort? The Grandmaster of the Templars. He had been promised release by Saladin if he could convince a Christian city to surrender and they chose Tripoli for the event. de Ridefort talked to them and managed to convince the city to surrender. Promptly, Saladin released him. But with the Third Crusade coming back, de Ridefort came back and got captured again by Saladin. This time, Saladin simply had him executed. He served no purpose this time and mercy could only go around so much.
