Meledaknya Perang Salib Pertama

the Battle of the Salim, a major conflict that found the world of Christianity and Islam in the conflict of the land of the earth. Okay, before we get into the story, let's flashback first. Around 636, a new force emerged from the Arab continent, yes, the Caliphate of Rasidin. Their expansion succeeded in overcoming the resistance of Byzantium in the Asia region. One by one, the cities began to fall.

and one of the cities there is called Jerusalem. Yes, this is one of the most holy cities and becomes a memorial site for Christians. But because the Byzantine power in the region has weakened, they cannot defend this city. And finally fell into the hands of the Rashidun Caliphate. But times keep changing. Years later, the Rashidun Caliphate collapsed due to the war of the brothers and replaced by new dynasties. The rulers came and went, the kingdom rose and fell.

but there is one thing that is still the same Jerusalem which until now is still under the Muslim rule Anjay, is the intro epic? Okay, let's get into the story on the Middle East Okay, we are in the year 1071 this year there was a big war in Anatolia yes, this is the Battle of Manzikert the war between Byzantium against the Sultanate of Seljuk Agung but in this battle Byzantium lost

even the emperor was arrested. Damn our emperor, some of Anatolia's territory also slowly fell into the hands of Seljuk and the Byzantine position became weaker and weaker. Byzantium is now entering a time of political crisis. Yes, since their emperor was arrested, the power in Byzantium has often changed, like there was a power struggle, and on the other hand, Seljuk continued to expand.

Hey, be patient, but finally about 10 years later a new emperor appeared who managed to stabilize the Byzantine political condition and brought Byzantium out of the political crisis. Yes, he is Alexius I, but yes, even so, Byzantium still has one more problem, the threat of Seljuk, there is another attack, ah, Seljuk, that's how it is, I don't know,

Alexius realized that Byzantium could not face the threat of Seljuk alone He also decided to send a request for help to Christian leaders in Western Europe And yes, the decision was made by the OTW BTW, the condition of Europe at that time was not less messy There were many conflicts, wars between kingdoms, power struggles, yes, basically messy

but this is all normal Yes because we are in the Middle Ages where war and chaos are common. The fire is through, damn it, it's normal, where are we going? Okay, let's continue to the mission of Alexius, the message below turns out to have reached the hands of Paus Urbanus II Alexius, help, Byzantium is starting to weaken, Seljuk continues to advance

It's been a long time since the kings fought each other. The king was angry and raised his sword against his fellow men. Maybe this is the time to unite. Okay, for those who don't know, Paus was the highest leader of the Catholic Church. And at that time, religion also had a very big influence. Well, that's why the voice of Paus could be heard by all classes, even a king class. Paus Urbanus also had a plan. He wanted to unite Europe, which often fought, through the same goal.

and so that everyone is interested, he added the role of religion. Jerusalem was the main destination because yes, this is also a holy city for Christians. Pope Sir Banus also held a big meeting in France. Yes, to convey his plan. Dear brothers, it's been a long time since you fought against your own allies. Even though, out there your brothers and sisters are having a hard time. A foreign nation has taken over the land of Christians in the East.

They have betrayed that land with swords and brought suffering. Therefore, I ask you, Christians, unite and help them. Recover our holy land and exorcise them. This is a holy journey. Deus Vult! Damn it! Deus Vult! Pope Urbanus was also shocked. He called for a holy war to recover the land of Jerusalem from the Muslims.

and yes, the crowds began to go down the atmosphere they began to cheer and scream after this Pilate, people became enthusiastic, the fun of the Holy War spread and became the main topic discussed in the European region there is a holy war, let's go and there are also news that circulate about the suffering of Christian people in Jerusalem and maybe this is a big one to burn the spirits of the fighters

Yes, like propaganda, the people from various groups are starting to be interested. Because yes, on this holy war journey, Paus Urbanus promises forgiveness of sins for anyone who wants to join. Besides, this is also like an opportunity for the Jelata people to start a new life. It's like a fate, some are looking for land, raising social status, even some just want to explore. Anjay, you want to join too? Yes bro, you guys are great, I already have a lot of friends.

Oh, what about you? Yeah, it's the same, but you guys are healing. Well, not only the people who want to join, but also the citizens who are interested. Actually, there are many citizens who will join. But because later the picture is too much, I can't put it all in. So we will focus on the three most iconic citizens. Godfrey of Buyo. He is a religious citizen. He joined the Holy War because he felt called to liberate Jerusalem.

If God calls, I will come. And there are also four Raimon from Toulouse. Richest and oldest. It's time to sacrifice. And the third, Bohemond I from Taranto. The fifth is the Norman nation, which is full of ambition. Jerusalem. This is exciting. And yes, these nationals also began to gather their troops. Some of them were living in Satria, looking for a rebel.

Well, it's all kinds of things, the point is that Europe is still excited about this holy war, especially the French, Flanders, Normandy, and Southern Italy. But there are more excited people, thousands of people don't want to wait for the preparation of the nationals, yes, because it's long, why is it so long, the faster the better, let's go, the people also choose to leave first,

Well, this first group will be known as the People's Cross War. They are led by Peter the Hermit. He is a priest who travels around Europe to preach, to heal the spirits of the people and go to the holy land. Most of those who come are ordinary people, like farmers, traders, merchants, and people who have never held weapons. They are like naked money.

even some of them even sell their property to buy preparation and cash on the street. Damn, you're really Alin. Yes, starting from zero, let's go. And yes, they are also OTW. Well, throughout the journey, their number continues to increase. Because every time they pass through the city and villages, there are only people who join. Hmm, what's the meaning of that? Huh? Uh, it's been a long time, man. Damn, don't be realistic, just use Indonesian, man.

and after 3-4 months of travel, they finally arrived in Byzantium and they were also met by Alexius I they are ordinary people's groups huh, I didn't ask for help from the satri, I don't know who came to them European soldiers are gathering their troops, we will go first and yes, this group was given a temporary residence there to wait for the main troops and their soldiers

Ah, this is the same as being told to wait, and a few weeks later the soldiers and their troops started their OTW. They used three different routes, some crossed the land and crossed the sea. Meanwhile, the Salih Braket gang was impatient, they didn't want to wait, and some of them made a raid in the center of the city. Because of this problem, they were also crossed to Anatolia. But yes, they were still told to wait there. Just go ahead, just wait, they were quickly picked up.

because they were impatient, they immediately gave it to the enemy region, the Seljuk Rum region. Okay, let's have a disclaimer first, so this Seljuk Empire was divided into several kingdoms or territories of power led by their own rulers, even rarely did they even fight each other with Seljuk. But even so, they are still considered part of the Seljuk Empire. It can be said that the condition of this empire is almost broken because of the war of the

and the one facing the Salib troops is the Sultan Seljuk Rum who is led by Sultan Kilit Arslan I actually they also know if there is a group of suspicious people entering their region but yes, Seljuk Rum is not too worried they are only considered like a group of visitors who carry weapons oh bang, it seems that there are foreign groups entering our region, bang just leave it, only visitors at most but it seems that they carry weapons, bang

Bro? Well, at that time, Sultan Kilith was no longer in the capital. He was busy running a military campaign against his rival in Anatolia. Well, it turns out that this army of the Sali Prakat managed to dominate the village with small posts in the area of Seljuk Rum. Well, they are getting more confident. They also started to raid the small villages there. Well, bro, it seems that the army that started to raid the village yesterday, bro. Jir! Hmm, okay, send troops. Well, because they started to be considered a nuisance for a long time, Seljuk Rum's troops were also sent.

The army's army of women and women also continued to advance They headed to Civetot I heard that there are many treasures in Civetot, man. We're rich, eh, the main purpose of the block. Well, when they arrived in Civetot, suddenly, they were chased by the Seljuk Army who had read their movements. The battle broke. Many of the army fighters fell into this battle. Because they can be said to be only the people, so there is nothing. The Seljuk Army won easily.

and it turns out that the leader of the army of the people's army managed to escape and yes, he returned to Byzantium again. Okay, a few months later, the soldiers and their army began to arrive in Byzantium. They brought more trained troops and warriors. Finally, it also reached Jir. Peter and Hermit also joined the gang of the soldiers. Oh, what's the mission, bro? They said they were finished on the stage, Jir.

Ah, that's a bit too much. Before they were sent to Anatolia, Emperor Alexius asked for one condition. The Byzantine region that was recaptured from the Seljuk must be returned to me. Okay? Okay. Huh? Actually, there are pros and cons to this promise. Your goal is to recapture Jerusalem, right? Not to look for land, right? Uh, Kea. Come on, this is a holy war, man. Come on.

After everything was ready, they were also crossed to Anatolia and started to enter the region of Seljuk Rum. Before they went straight to Jerusalem, their first target was the city of Nicaea. Yes, the capital of the Seljuk Rum Empire. Because as long as this city is still standing, the Seljuk army can attack them from behind when they are walking to Jerusalem. So they have to be taken care of first, so that they are safe. And yes, they also went to Nicaea. The Seljuk Rum side actually already knew about the movement of this wave.

but as usual, he was beaten. Yes, they thought this was the same group, like the elite army that had been successfully defeated before. They let the city of Nicaya survive on their own and they were busy fighting with their rivals. Yes, Sultan Kilit was still outside the capital, but when Nicaya was completely destroyed, Sultan Kilit finally received new news.

who attacked the city of Nicaia turned out to be not ordinary people but European soldiers and his army and yes, the Sultan Kilic immediately took help to the city of Nicaia. Well, after arriving, he immediately ordered his army to attack from outside the fort. The army was attacked from two directions from the inside of the fort and from outside the fort.

But even though the enemy had arrived, it turned out that it was not enough to replace the Salib army. The line of Salib's army was difficult to break. Well, because of the victims who kept falling, Kilit Arslan also decided to retreat. And the city of Nicaya was forced to let it stand alone. But yes, Sultan Kilit did not give up. Although the city of Nicaya was left, the band of the city of Nicaya was still strong enough to withstand the attack of the Salib.

plus food and assistance supplies keep coming through the Ascania lake so this city can still survive even though it has been surrounded from all directions oh how is this jir? oh it's still safe, especially since there is still food okay okay oh shit our supply line is closed yes it turns out that the Byzantine side has ordered to close the supply line in the Ascania lake the morale of the soldiers is down and because the supply is closed, the people in the city are starting to starve

In the midst of this situation, it turns out that Alexius sent a message to the city of Nicaea to make a secret rally without the knowledge of the army of the cross. The point of this rally is that the Byzantium asked them to give up. "Ahem, excuse me sir, what if you just surrender?" "What the heck?" But give up to the Byzantium so that they won't be ruined by the army of the cross. "Well, which one is better, to join us or to surrender to them?" "Eh, better with you." And yes, they agreed.

In the morning, the Byzantine flag was already flying in the bow of Nicaya, which means that Nicaya had fallen into the hands of Byzantium. The gates of Nicaya were also opened. "Oh, it's already open, huh? Let's go, Jarrah!" "Oh, I can't, huh? Now this city is officially owned by the Byzantine Empire, so I can't go to Jarrah. I can take a break." "Ah, it's not fun, damn it." Because Nicaya had fallen, the Salih army continued their journey again, crossing Anatolia.

But yes, because they are in the territory of Seljuk, their journey is not smooth. Suddenly, the group of Bohemians in the front line was raided by the Seljuk Rum army, which was directly led by the Sultan. A big battle took place. In the middle of this battle, the Bohemian group did not retreat. They survived to death. Until finally, the group behind got news that there was a battle ahead. And yes, they also rushed to send help.

With additional assistance, the Saljuk Rum troops were forced to retreat again This time they realized that the Salib troops had become a serious threat This group could not be defeated by open combat Sultan Gilitsin decided to use another strategy Using the tactic of the earth to be destroyed, food was thrown away, fields were burned The purpose was so that the Salib troops could not replenish their food supplies The journey of the Salib troops also turned into a natural selection

many troops and horses were flying on the road because of hunger and hunger. But even so, they still kept on fighting. After weeks of traveling, the Seljuk army finally managed to get out of the Seljuk area and started to enter the Suria area. Before the main destination, they wanted to target the city of Antioquia first. "Lama, what are you doing? Yes, why did you want to leave this big flag behind? We'll get hit by a bat later,

So, let's take the checkpoint first, so it's safe. Let's go! And yes, the anti-okia fight has begun. But the problem is that this anti-okia flag is much stronger than the previous Nikaya City flag. The fight has become a mess, even for months. But suddenly there is a flag keeper who quietly betrays and opens the way for the army to enter the city. Damn it, it's open, let's go! Well, why is it like that? Are you the one who answers?

and finally this city was successfully conquered by an attack from within but before they managed to celebrate the victory, suddenly the allied troops of the ruler of Seljuk came yes they wanted to recapture the city of Antioch the Salib army was forced to fight again but finally the allied troops were successfully beaten back and the Salib army managed to defend the city of Antioch well they didn't immediately continue their journey they rested first in the city of Antioch yes because after the big war so yes, it's boring

they want to fill in the supply with their energy first. Well, at this moment there is a conflict between the nationals. Bohemond claims that this city of Antioquia is his. Well, how? You forgot about our agreement with Byzantium. The Byzantine region that was rebelled from Seljuk must be returned to me again. Okay? Well, he didn't help. Stuck in the city of Nicaya. He took it too. Bro, you ruined the glory of the Holy War. Ahem. Thank God, I didn't come.

Anomaly, damn it! And a few months later, the Salib troops continued their journey again But this time, the Bahaymon did not come He really settled in the city of Antioquia And established the Antioquian Empire He's like making his own country of power And Godfrey and Raymond continued their journey They began to enter the area of ​​the Fatimian Caliphate After a long journey, they finally arrived in Jerusalem

And yes, the conquest of Jerusalem was also started Now the Salib army is facing the Fatimiyah army The defense of the Fatimiyah army is also quite strong Which makes the conquest of Jerusalem go on for weeks Now the Salib army is aware that they lack a conquest tool They also started to make a conquest tool from the wood that was in that area Some even took wood from the ship that was on the side They also managed to make the towers of the royal conquest and the bridge trampler Yes, this is preparation for a decisive attack

Before the decisive attack, the Salib troops carried out religious processes. They walked around Jerusalem while praying, asking for protection from God. July 14, 1099 The siege began again. On the north side, the Godfrey troops continued to advance while carrying siege equipment. And in the south, Raymond also did the same thing. They began to approach the wall while carrying siege equipment. But to approach the wall, it's not that easy.

The Salib troops were constantly rained with projectiles and the Fatimiyah troops were on top of the barricades. Because the victims kept falling, they couldn't move further and decided to retreat. Seeing the first day of the attack failed, Godfrey had a new idea. At night, Godfrey quietly moved one of the fortresses to the side of the wall that was weaker. And in the morning, the Salib troops continued the siege again. Here, the Fatimiyah troops were surprised to see a tower that advanced to the other side of the wall.

Yes, that's the tower that Godfrey put down yesterday. Fatimah's army also divided his troops again. But Raymond also ordered his army to back them up. Until finally, this tower was lined up with the wall. And the bridge was also opened. Godfrey's army was the first to climb the wall. Well, from here, Fatimah's army's defense was broken. And the other towers also succeeded in joining in.

Now the wall of Jerusalem has been filled by the Salim army. Until finally the gate was also successfully broken. And the Salim army has begun to enter the city. Yes, the defense of Jerusalem was successfully defeated and the city began to be destroyed. Even after Jerusalem was conquered, there was a great defeat against the inhabitants of Jerusalem. This is the most tragic event in the history of the Salim War.

And a few days later, Godfrey was chosen to be the leader of Jerusalem. Yes, it can be said to be like being a king. "Oh my God, our leader is a leader, Jir!" "Huh? Yoi, Godfrey lives!" "No, it's not!" "Huh?" It turns out that Godfrey is a king. He feels like he doesn't deserve to wear a gold crown. While Jesus was crucified in this city wearing a golden crown. "But you already wore a golden crown."

Here's the author's question, it's not clear, really, your father, Godfrey, chose to be the leader of the holy tomb guards. BTW, he still became the leader of Jerusalem, but it's like a different rank. And yes, since then, Jerusalem has been moving to Christian people. Okay, wait a minute, maybe for the history of this crusade, I will make a lot of videos. Yes, let's edit it. It turns out to be tired too, damn it.

and that's it, see you in the next video
