How did Saladin become the chancellor of the Fatimids?

Around 1000 AD, the Fatimid Dynasty began to decline, and the military aristocracy swelled, influencing the political situation and tilting each other, and the country's politics were almost paralyzed. Of these military forces, Saladin Ayyub was the most powerful. Saladin was a Turkic who was known for his bravery and warfare.

By this time, the Church and the feudal lords of Western Europe had already launched two crusades. During the First Crusade, they captured the Holy Land of Jerusalem. The occupiers did everything they could to loot in the city, and even reached such a tacit agreement:

Whoever enters a dwelling first acquires and takes possession of that dwelling and all that is in it, free from being infringed upon by others.

Then they resorted to appalling cruelty: they cut open the belly and brain of the dead man, and removed the gold coins that the deceased had swallowed before his death. Later, because it was too cumbersome to do so, they piled up the bodies and burned them to ashes to make it easier to find**.

When the Second Crusade arrived in the Middle East, Saladin, though not yet 20 years old, bravely shouldered the responsibility of defending his family and country with his uncle Shirku. They led the Turkic army to kill the enemy all the way to the city of Cairo. Shavar, the old prime minister of the Fatimid Kingdom, took a hostile attitude towards them, and even colluded with the Crusaders to kill people with a sword.

Saladin decided to get rid of this scourge.

One day, Shavar received an invitation from Saladin to the cemetery of the head priest, Shafiyi, to negotiate the withdrawal of the army. As soon as Shavar entered the cemetery, Saladin greeted him with a smile and shook his hand warmly. After a few pleasantries, the two sides began to negotiate.

Sha'war was the first to say, "Your Majesty the Caliph asked me when His Excellency the General intends to return with his division, so that we can prepare early. ”

We're going back, but not yet, because there's still work to be done. Saladin replied with a smile.

What's up? Shavar asked warily.

As far as we know, Egypt was invaded several times by the Crusaders because of the secret collaboration with the enemy. How can we walk away from this bane? Saladin's tone became serious.

With a wave of his hand, Saladin swarmed the axemen who had been lying in ambush around him, surrounding Shavar and his guards.

After this, Saladin's uncle, Shirku, became the prime minister of the Fatimids. Soon after, his uncle died, and he succeeded him as prime minister.

The Arabs were called the empire by the expansion of the nomadic clan tribes, but after entering the empire, the royal family of the Arab Empire, the feudal lords of the aristocracy and the feudal lords of the original clan tribes were separated, coupled with sectarian disputes, so they could not get enough soldiers As a last resort, they began to hire foreign troops, including the Persians, Berbers, and Kurds in the region, as well as foreign peoples such as Turkmen Turks, Kipchak Turks, Armenians, Rus, etc., so a powerful foreign warlord group was formed. These warlords grew in power because they held the monarchy, and later overthrew their feudal lords (mainly local sultans, but some directly replaced the caliphate, such as Saladin, who directly killed the Fatimid caliphate) and replaced them themselves.
