Richard the Lionheart marched his Crusader army south along the coast toward Jaffa while Saladin's forces constantly harassed them. At Arsuf, the Hospitaller knights, unable to endure further provocation, broke ranks and charged. Richard seized the moment and ordered a general cavalry charge that routed Saladin's army. The victory was one of the few times a Crusader army defeated Saladin in open battle and demonstrated Richard's superb tactical ability.
