Age of Empires 2 Definitive Edition - El Cid Campaign "Black Guards" | Hard Playthrough

This is my playthrough of the fourth mission from the El Cid campaign in Age of Empires 2: Definitive Edition. I'll be placing time stamps for each part of the scenario in the comments section for those looking for a specific part. Enjoy!
El Cid mission 4 is a little difficult, due to the scale of the enemies' base and their early siege, as well as the fact you're dealing with 3 enemies consistently. Once you have finished the docks off in the Black Guard Navy/Army area, destroying the docks in Yusuf's territory isn't particularly difficult. Stay tuned for the rest of my Age of Empires 2: Definitive Edition Hard Playthrough!
The El Cid campaign has a pretty awesome story that goes along with it. I especially love narration style, through the eyes of Ximena Diaz.
If you're up to play some AoE2 or AoE2: DE Multiplayer my Steam friend code is 96935151.

Imagined having your ungrateful arse saved by the very man you mistreated, just to do not only the same to him again, but also his wife and children. This king's ego and stupidity were probably bigger than the entire kingdom he ruled (even to this very day, many so-called leaders still, sadly, behave the same).
As for the Cid, despite knowing full well that this damn king was not trustworthy, he still simped for him and still refused to speak up for himself, especially his own family.

Save Spain
Get exiled because you took to long to arrive back
Yeah, I’m sure that is why Alfonzo set him back into Exile
