Conrad again refuses Guy entry to the…
August 1189 CE
Conrad again refuses Guy entry to the city in August, so he breaks camp and makes his way south to attack Acre; he and his troops travel along the coast, while the Pisans and Sicilians go by sea.
Guy urgently needs a firm base from which he can organize a counterattack on Saladin, and since he cannot have Tyre, he directs his plans to Acre, fifty kilometers (thirty-one miles) to the south.
Thus Guy and Conrad are allies against Saladin.
