March
Such is the situation in March 1191, when ships arrive off Acre bringing welcome supplies and news of the approach of the armies of the Third Crusade.
Duke Leopold V, mainly remembered outside Austria for his participation in the Third Crusade, arrives to take part in the siege of Acre in spring 1191, having sailed from Zadar on the Adriatic coast.
He had taken over command of what remains of the imperial forces after the death of Frederick VI, Duke of Swabia, in January.
Ships also bring devastating news for Saladin.
He has missed his chance to crush the remaining Christians and now King Richard of England and King Philip of France are on their way to the Holy Land, each accompanied by an army.
Saladin’s chance for victory has slipped away.
