A stone about half a meter in diameter flew directly over from a height of tens of meters. All the soldiers from the Cao Family Trading Company here saw it, but they had no way to avoid it because there were stones coming from all around.
I really didn't expect that they would use such a method. The soldiers in front rushed forward desperately. The soldiers on the city wall focused their attention on these charging soldiers, and they couldn't care less about the slings behind them.
, that is, your inability to take care of this has made you suffer. Now those guys are looking at the city wall happily. They have never caused such heavy casualties to the people of the Cao Family Trading Company. Although they were in front.
Tens of thousands of people died, but what happened? We also killed hundreds of them. This is not bad. If this was absolutely impossible before, the Cao Family Trading Company's troops were on the city wall.
It was very difficult to cause casualties to them. They did it. They did something that even the soldiers of the four empires could not do. What if they exchanged human lives? At least they caused losses to the people of the Cao Family Trading Company. In the past
At that time, they also lost so many people, but they didn't kill anyone from the Cao Family Trading Company. Now it's already very good. Several officials from the military headquarters who came with the army also looked at it happily.
Well, no matter what, they at least have a little hope. The Cao Family Trading Company's counterattack is very powerful, but we also have a way to deal with you. Of course, this way is only after such a confrontation. As for what happens next
If it's not still effective, just leave it alone. You can go back to the capital to do business. People like them don't want to be in such a chaotic place. It's too unsafe.
The soldiers of the Cao Family Trading Company on the city wall are all new recruits. If they had not seen any casualties, they would have been able to fight with ease. But now that there are one-tenth casualties, they may also be Cao Family Trading Company's troops.
The one with the highest casualty rate. Some of their soldiers were already feeling scared. Such a thing was a bit unbelievable to them. But when they saw the face of the squad leader next to them, no one backed away. Without saying anything else, they just said
In this regard, they are qualified warriors. When Zhang Pu arrived, they had already suffered more than half of their casualties. The Southern Empire's attack was really too violent. If they had brought a large number of artillery when they came, they would have suppressed the catapults.
But it's possible, but when they came they thought it was a surrendered county, so they didn't bring these heavy weapons. After all, everyone had surrendered, so what were you doing with so many weapons? The super serial crossbow can kill continuously.
The enemy, but the enemy doesn't care about human life at all. If you want to hit their trebuchet, they will block it with human life. There is no way to hit it. Even if you can hit it, it won't have much effect. After all, super
The serial crossbow is a tool for dealing with people, and it has little effect on these instruments. Now what is faced by the Cao Family Trading Company's army is a more severe form. They encountered a threat. In the past, they had to at least kill
They would only suffer casualties if more than 200,000 siege soldiers died. But now the opponent has 200,000 dead, but they have also lost half. If the Southern Empire's 200,000 soldiers died before, they would have retreated long ago.
But now they are not leaving. This is because the soldiers of the Southern Empire have seen hope, the hope of victory.
The most important thing on the battlefield is not to give hope to your enemies. Just like the 500,000 soldiers of the Southern Empire in front of you, if it were the same as before, 200,000 of them would have died. But the Cao Family Trading Company on the city wall
The soldiers have not suffered much damage yet and maintain the best combat effectiveness, so no matter how their officers attack them or beat them, they will not go up. If they rush up at that time, they will die and nothing will happen in the end.
Yes, but it's different now. They also lost 200,000 people, but thousands of people from the Cao Family Trading Company also died. There were only more than 4,000 people in total, and now more than half of them are dead.
These people have another thought in their minds. They feel that as long as they work hard, they may be able to conquer this city. What the two billion troops on the front line have not been able to do, they can do it in their hands.
When they arrive, they may be famous throughout the ages. Even an ordinary soldier hopes that they can be passed down. Although people in future generations may not be able to recognize them, many of them have also experienced what they are doing, so they all
One after another, they rushed forward. They were going to become the heroes of the empire. They might be the first ones to seize the city from the hands of the Cao Family Trading Company. With this, as long as they could survive in the future, their lives would be changed.
It was even more dazzling. It was because of this that when their commander asked them to move forward, each one of them rushed forward without fear of death. It seemed that the city wall in front was no longer the wall of the Cao Family Trading Company, but
Like a big city that represents money and honor, their eyes were blinded by this and they forgot about the bows and arrows that were shot.
"Captain, we still have more than a thousand people left. They have already set up ladders at the broken parts of the city wall. Do we want to retreat?" The chief of staff of the regiment had already broken an arm by a stone. The health worker gave him a
He bandaged it a little. Although he didn't have much fighting power, he still didn't go down. He just used his newly issued hand crossbow to kill several soldiers of the Southern Empire. It was because of their hundreds of injuries.
With the help of soldiers, the defense line on the city wall was not breached by the opponent. Now for their infantry regiment, the combat effectiveness of the wounded soldiers is also very important, because so many people died, and their defense line was already somewhat damaged.
If their weapons hadn't been very powerful, the city wall would have been breached long ago. At this time, the opponent's trebuchets also stopped attacking. It seemed that their stones were not enough. Fortunately, this place is a plain area.
, if this was a mountainous area, they would probably be able to throw all the stones over, and maybe bury the entire city. After hearing the words of the chief of staff, the regiment leader got off a Super I serial crossbow, and the soldiers hurriedly took the time.
Replace the quiver for the super serial crossbow. The 300 arrows just now have been fired. The leader is experienced in operating this thing. His shooting accuracy is much stronger than ordinary people. He can at least half of the 300 crossbow arrows.
The above casualties, if other people were to operate it, would probably be one-third, which would be pretty good. Because the soldier who just operated this thing was killed by the bow and arrow shot from below, so the regiment commander made up for it.
In just ten minutes, the leader killed hundreds of people. His record was something that few people could surpass. The leader was indeed a big BOSS.
"Retreat? Where can we retreat to? The people in this city don't welcome us very much. Don't listen to what they just said. I have already asked people to investigate, and they all have their own weapons.
, Normally we are naturally not afraid of these guys playing tricks on us. But now we only have this person, and there are more than a thousand of us. As long as we retreat from the city wall, we have no way to fight with the enemy in the street.
, the people here will not support us, they are not the people in our base area. Now they are all from the Southern Empire. They all think we are going to rob their things. Tell the soldiers below that our regiment has arrived now.
It's the last time. As long as we can hold the city wall, our reinforcements will definitely come in no more than an hour. But if we pull it off, we will all die here. They don't have many stones left, and this place
It's not a place with many rocks. If they think they can rush through here, then let our bodies bet on them." The leader said proudly, and without wasting any time after finishing speaking, he just rushed up.
This archer was pulled down. This guy is pretty good for an ordinary soldier, but his accuracy is only half that of the regiment leader. If he were to come, I don’t know how many bows and arrows would be wasted. Now Cao Cao
The bows and arrows of the family business have been hit here, and there are already a little more than half. Every bow and arrow is very precious. If it is operated well, it will be a life of the Southern Empire, so there is not so much time to give this
The kid has gotten used to things like this here, so it would be better for him to take over quickly.
The words of the regiment leader were quickly conveyed. The people below also knew that their army was not very far away from here and would definitely come to assist them. One by one, they had fighting spirit again. In fact, they were such an army.
It is already very good that the new recruits can fight to this level. It would have been unimaginable in the past. It is precisely for this reason that they have created a miracle. They hope that this miracle can go further, so that
It was not easy for the brothers behind them to overtake them. Just when the enemy's attack came to a halt, they had a rare few minutes to breathe. The opponent's people seemed to have changed their direction.
When the formation came over, it looked like there were tens of thousands of people. More than half of the opponents were already dead. Just looking at the corpses below, there must have been hundreds of thousands of people. There were also those who had returned injured. They were all lacking in this era.
Medicines and doctors. Generally speaking, these injured people are unlikely to survive. After they go back, they will die early due to wound inflammation or something. This is a certain thing, and they want to continue.
Stay there, that is impossible. There is no need for injuries in the army. The Southern Empire has never cared about injuries. You can just fend for yourself there. The rest has nothing to do with us.
Yes, we have also given you money. Although it is a little less, it is still there, but the phalanx coming out now seems to be different from other soldiers. If Li Cong is here, he can see
When they came out, their clothes seemed to be those of the primitive tribes on the earth. These people were wearing very few clothes. Are they here to dance hula?
Of course, these people don't come to dance hula. They are the newly recruited soldiers from the Southern Empire. They are a nation in the wilderness of the Southern Empire. They seem to be a nation. This wilderness is the largest in the central part of the Southern Empire.
It is a wasteland, about the size of four provinces, and there are more than 100 million nomads in it. They don't care much about the outside world, and they have no concern about the war between the Southern Empire and the Cao Family Trading Company's army.
Meaning, but they all know that they are within the territory of the Southern Empire. The Southern Empire's army is very powerful. Although these people cannot threaten them, because in the wilderness, no one is their opponent. Throwing scimitars
The ability of the Southern Empire made the people of the Southern Empire suffer a lot when they sent troops in. But now they have to send troops to this place to fight for the Southern Empire because the Southern Empire wants to block the wasteland. Of course, their troops came out
Not many, less than 30,000 people came this time. The Southern Empire government didn't know whether their people could play any role in the war. It is important to know that it is not that simple to conquer their troops.
Yes, if it is useful, we will definitely call them out in large numbers, but it is just a trial stage now. You don’t need to be so desperate to do things. We have already discussed it with them. As long as you kill a soldier from the Cao Family Trading Company, you can do it.
You can give them one hundred pennies. If the soldiers outside hear this price, they will stop immediately. But the interior of the wasteland is too poor and lacks gold and silver. One hundred pennies is already a lot.
They all came out for this reason. They all wanted to kill a few soldiers from the Cao Family Trading Company so that they could live a good life when they went back.
It can be said that they all have their own characteristics. First of all, the people in front of them are all over two and a half meters tall. Although no one in this era is less than one and eight meters tall, for such people
The height is still very scary, and they don't know what these people do, but after seeing them forming the formation, they understand what's going on. What they are carrying in front of them is actually a three-meter-high stone shield. Damn it,
What is a strong man? Such a person is a strong man. Two people can lift a shield. Cao Family Trading Company's bows and arrows cannot hit their people directly. It is too high. Cao Family Trading Company
The people fought for a while and found that their people were still far away. If they were close, they could just throw grenades. Now they still can't get over, but they all stopped. Aren't they going to attack the city? Now
What are they going to do? Soon, the people in the Cao Family Trading Company on the city wall understood what these people wanted to do. The people behind them all threw the scimitars in their hands. Oh my god, their strength can actually do it.
So big? A distance of thousands of meters. In fact, this is a misunderstanding of the people of the Cao Family Trading Company. The scimitar they threw was not just thrown by their own strength. The other useful force was the power of the wind.
Just like the kind of flying that children on earth used to play in the past, they all used a kind of turning force. This thing flew up above the city wall and directly massacred the people of the Cao family trading company.
But the hit rate doesn't work that way. Just like this time, when thousands of people threw this thing, less than a hundred people were injured, and the rest either hit the city wall or went back again.
Although less than a hundred people were injured, there are now more than a thousand combat personnel in the Cao family business. They were dumbfounded when they encountered such a situation. How could there be such an army? To be honest, these Cao family merchants
The people in the merchant house all fought the war so smoothly that they didn't even remember how to fight such a difficult war. They could only pull the triggers like crazy, hoping to find some weakness of these people, but very soon
The unfortunate problem is that this is impossible. They didn't hit them at all. Those rocks were so powerful that they threw a lot of grenades, but they couldn't reach them at all. The mortars could.
They arrived, but because the number was not very large, and besides, there were also many people on the other side, if someone died here, they would be replaced immediately there, so it seemed that their phalanx of more than a thousand people was a little small.
There is no reduction. Such things made the officers and soldiers of the Cao Family Trading Company dumbfounded. It will definitely not work if this continues. At present, the Cao Family Trading Company has less than a thousand people who can fight. After three rounds of attacks, they will let their side
231 people died and 119 were injured. These scimitars are very powerful. Basically, if they come into contact, they will definitely lose their combat effectiveness. At this time, the Southern Empire's army divided into 100,000 troops and attacked from all sides.
, the Cao Family Trading Company's army, which was already short of troops, began to feel stretched. They looked in the distance and could already see the Cao Family Trading Company's airship. As long as they persisted for a while, their own people would come over.
Yes, they can escape the attacks from the people on the city wall, but it is absolutely impossible to escape the attacks from the people on the airship. They will definitely be killed. This is a sure thing. It depends on whether they can persist.
It can be said that the army of the Southern Empire this time the regiment encountered was an experimental army. They were here to adapt to some new tactics. For them, they did not know what effect these things would have. This is also the case with other
It was something that people from the three empires jointly researched. They did not have the weapons of the Cao Family Trading Company, so they could only find other things to attack the Cao Family Trading Company. Although they killed a lot of people, but now
It can already be seen that they can exchange ten people for one person from the Cao Family Trading Company, especially those in the wasteland. They can reach five people or even lower. If such a thing is not reported to the superiors quickly,
, What a dereliction of duty. The people in the army looked at the remaining army of less than 150,000, and then looked at the airship coming from the Cao Family Trading Company in the distance. They were not fools. This was what they brought with them back then.
With such a small army, they can run rampant in the capital of the Eastern Empire. They cannot resist such things. They must run out while they can now. They are all the pioneers of this tactic, and they will definitely not
You can let anything happen to you right here. Everyone is emphasizing their own importance. In fact, there is only one purpose, that is, they have to retreat quickly. If they cannot retreat, it will be harmful to the entire empire in the future.
It was a big loss, and what he said was high-sounding, but the general who led the team knew that they were all afraid of death. According to his own ideas, he must recover the county, but when he saw the airship of the Cao Family Trading Company, he immediately
It was about to come, and they were worried about their own lives, so they hurriedly called for gold and retreated their troops. The people in the Cao Family Trading Company also breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this voice.
If they attack the city with all their strength from all four sides at the same time, the people above may not be able to hold on. They all know very well how capable these people are. Each of these people uses scimitars to attack the most powerful people above.
The fighting men were killed, and the serial crossbows in many people's hands were already out of ammunition. If the fight continued, they would probably have to use melee combat, which Cao Family Trading Company was least good at. Cao Family Trading Company had never advocated it.
Soldiers engage in close combat. For them, close combat has no technical content at all. They all understand this and must use their own skills to fight against them, that is, the serial crossbows in their hands.
, but now the actual situation tells them that things are not that simple. They also have such powerful weapons. If things go wrong, these people may kill them all. This is because the airship from their side is coming.
Otherwise, I wouldn’t know where to look for my head today. These hundreds of people looked at their comrades who were so happy a few hours ago. Now their bodies are going stiff, all because of the recent
For a period of time, if it weren't for the recent period, we wouldn't be at this level now. None of these damn guys know what they are doing. How could such a situation happen? Those special things
Where did it come from? It seems that from now on, the war with the Southern Empire will not be so easy. The Southern Empire should promote this tactic, otherwise, they will not study this
Well, if the battle losses are reduced, it will be even more difficult for the Cao Family Trading Company to occupy these areas in the future.
When the Cao Family Trading Company's airship arrived here, they simply couldn't believe that what they were seeing was real. It seemed to them that something was wrong. Was this all caused by the devil? How could the people of the Cao Family Trading Company encounter this?
What about such a terrible defeat in front of us? There are nearly 5,000 people in the regiment, but less than 700 are left with combat effectiveness, and more than 4,000 casualties. This was absolutely unbelievable in the past. Zhang Pu came here with his own guards.
He was also surprised, but he didn't cry like other people here. This guy had his own ideas. If he cried at this time, he could only say the most useless behavior. He immediately
Gathered the remaining people here and asked them to tell what happened one by one. Then they went to the city wall to look at the scimitars left behind, and immediately asked their guards to take this thing with them.
Go to the intelligence department of the Cao Family Trading Company and ask them to investigate this matter as quickly as possible. No matter what route is used, this matter must be investigated clearly. The rest will naturally be revenged.
Although the 112th Division has not fought any tough battles since it came to the city, it can be regarded as a regular army member of the Cao Family Trading Company. Now that something like this has happened, it must not be locked up like a shrinking tortoise. Then
It was not his own style of doing things. He must avenge himself and must do so immediately. He knew that those people had infantry in their hands and would not run too fast. Zhang Pu immediately ordered the airship to bite them tightly. It is estimated that they
There must be a big fish among them. Since you are here, don't go back. In addition to taking the regiment he came with and his guard company, Zhang Pu immediately asked two nearby regiments to come to support. He knew that there were
Armed with these weapons, the Southern Empire's army will never be the same as before. In the past, two regiments of my own could kill 500,000 of them, but now it's not that simple. It's better for me to be more honest.
The leading general of the Southern Empire was also very happy this time. It can be said that it was not easy for the Empire to get these people from the wasteland. These people had fought against the Empire fiercely in the past. In their eyes,
There is no concept of the empire at all. For them, it is better to let them come here to do things than to kill them directly. If the empire hadn't threatened this time and sent out a lot of magicians, they probably wouldn't have come out.
Yes, it's fine now. We will definitely persecute them in the future. The empire has already sent out experts to arrest several bosses of their tribe. The empire also told them that the 500,000 soldiers of the Cao Family Trading Company
They can let their boss get some freedom. As long as the empire negotiates with the Cao Family Trading Company, their boss can go back. If they can't win. If they don't fight hard, then I'm sorry.
, you can only collect the body of your boss. For barbaric people like you, the empire has always had such a high-pressure policy and will never be soft-hearted. Of course these people know that this experiment was successful. Their boss
We can save our lives, but for the entire race, this is not a good thing. These people will definitely continue to use their people. Tens of thousands of people came this time. It will not be so cheap in the future. It will cost at least several thousand.
There are ten thousand people, and every one of them is precious. They don't want to sacrifice their lives for the people of the Southern Empire, but they have no choice but to do otherwise.
"General, it's bad, the Cao Family Trading Company's airships are chasing us. They are already no more than 2,000 meters away from us. It is estimated that they will be above us in a few minutes. There are three of them. General, what should we do?"
A scout quickly ran to the general's side. This guy looked back when he was talking. Damn it. When I found them, they were still far away from me. I didn't expect them to be so close to me.
I saw this thing in front of me. This thing really surprised me. The speed of this thing is really too fast. If this thing really flies over, I don’t know what it will do to people like me. These people heard what he said.
I was also dumbfounded. Didn’t I win just now? How could someone else’s airship chase me? For these people in the wasteland, they have never seen these things. How can they fly in the sky? They can see it.
They arrived very quickly. Could it be that they were organized by the people who were killed just now? Could it be that they came to take revenge? Everyone looked at the general with a little fear. The general glanced at the people around him.
, now I can only feel sorry, he must report this matter back, he glanced at his guards, he himself is a sixth-level soldier, and several of his guards are also fifth-level soldiers, from the imperial military headquarters.
Those gentlemen are all in the carriage. They don't know anything about what's going on here. The general has already made a decision in his heart. Just like those guys said, he has to leave. He is taking you with him.
It's impossible to leave. I'm sorry for you.
The general pulled the scout down at once, and several of the guards around him also snatched the good horses. Then without saying anything, he ran straight ahead. The military ministers wanted to come out.
Seeing what was going on, they felt their carriage speeding up. It turned out that the airship was already above their heads at this time, and it came over in a minute. They walked on the mountain road for half an hour, but they
It flies from the sky. No matter how difficult the road here is, it is nothing to the things that fly in the sky. As long as you have fuel, it is very simple to go anywhere.
, when it comes to your heads, naturally it will not be as simple as just coming and taking a look. The people in these wilderness are still standing there and watching stupidly. The general's own soldiers are all surviving the disaster, of course.
Those with horses immediately rushed out to chase the general. Those without horses had to find a hiding place. They would never stand here stupidly. That would be second-rate. Standing in such a place would be a disservice to oneself.
You are irresponsible for your life. No one will care about such people even if they die. As for those old military ministers, I'm sorry for you. You are people with no ability. You can't even ride a horse. How about riding a carriage?
Your coachmen have all run away, so all you can do is shout loudly here, which will have a certain effect. At least, the people from the Cao Family Trading Company will shoot you arrows when they see you.
You people don't need to be alive anymore. Your final role is to attract the attention of the Cao Family Trading Company to our people, and you will live a good life.
The reaction speed of this general can be said to be very fast. At this time, there is no time to waste. If there is a slight delay, it will be a fatal injury to them. Several of his guards understand
The meaning was very good. Each of these people saw the light of this matter, and they followed very closely. After these people rode horses for a while, they immediately threw their horses on the roadside.
The horses are indeed very fast, but now their mission has been completed. If they continue to ride them, they will definitely be discovered by people from the Cao Family Trading Company. By then, the enemies above them will be the most difficult to kill.
Yes, they can only be killed. Are they riding fast? There is a destination to run, and now they are where they want to go. It is in this mountain forest. Entering from here, there are thousands of miles of mountains and forests ahead.
The trees inside are probably the oldest hunters here. Even the oldest hunters don’t know how long they have been there, so it is still very safe in such a place. For them, it is no problem to run out in the forest.
. At most, there are only some wild beasts here. As long as they don't encounter Warcraft, they will be fine. It is absolutely impossible for there to be Warcraft in such a hinterland of mankind. Of course, they all know it clearly. If
If there are monsters inside, they will definitely choose to fight to the death with the people from Cao's Trading Company. If they encounter monsters, they will definitely die ugly. They don't want that.
The fate of the remaining troops can be imagined. The airships of the Cao Family Trading Company continued to attack them from above. They also saw the woods in the distance, but it was not that simple for them to run over. Cao
The people on the airship of the family business also saw how those generals passed by. They had already made mistakes and let those generals run past. There would never be a second mistake. If you are taken away
If they were all let go, they would stop messing around. Now that's what they have to do. What they have to do now is to end it all. An airship quickly flew to the front of these teams, constantly
Throwing grenades, one reached the front of the team and threw the cluster grenade. The people in front did not dare to pass because they saw it and seemed to continue to move forward. The grenade was too powerful. If it were not so fast,
If you go forward, it seems that you can go a little slower. In other words, you can die a little later. There is nothing else. Of course they understand these things. If you run over
If you do, they won't be able to catch up with you, and they may run away directly, but if you want to go back, they will kill you slowly. They still have this ability. Although they understand the intentions of the Cao Family Trading Firm, but for the sake of their own
Live a little longer. You have to do that. The result of not doing that is that you will die now. Even if it is just a minute, it is very good. They will consider such things and know what to do. The above
When the airship saw them returning, it immediately sent a signal to the pursuing troops behind them. That's it, they were hopeless.
The general's escape is not a good thing for any general, but today he doesn't feel guilty at all. Their people killed thousands of people in the Cao family business, which is considered enough for them. They were people from the Cao Family Trading Company who were killed in the siege. Speaking of which, he should be a hero of the empire. A hero's life should not be like dying. He must take these things back. Go to the capital and tell the people in the capital about this tactic, so that they can continue to train a large number of such troops, those trebuchets, and those people in the wasteland. In this way, he can continue to be promoted and make a fortune, at least his own official position. There is no problem in upgrading the level, because I brought this news back. No one else has such ability. I have achieved great success. These people are not as lucky as me. Thinking of what I just said Several old men from the military department were still dictating to me. I also thought that I might need their help in the future. I served them like my grandson for several days. Under such circumstances, your official position is worse than mine. What? What happened to your noble title? What is the final result? I'm sorry, your ability is not as good as mine, but I ran out safely. Now I am still alive. When I look back at you, you are already dead. , you can't be alive, you can only die there honestly. I will burn paper for you at this time next year, don't worry.
Just when the general was still mourning those people, a scimitar flew over. He was about to dodge. Unfortunately, a person came behind him and killed him directly. The remaining
Several of his guards were also hit by scimitars. The general looked back with some difficulty. It turned out that this was his most trusted lieutenant. He also told him that he was going to escape. Then he looked at the surrounding woods and came out.
He killed a lot of people in the wasteland. Is this guy crazy? How did these people in the wasteland get out? They can't ride horses. Shouldn't they all die there? How could they come here?
"Haha, it's strange, isn't it? In fact, let me tell you, this time not only 20,000 troops were sent to the wasteland, but at least hundreds of thousands of troops came out. But now they don't need to worry so much. I also came out there.
Man, it’s just that I’ve been with you for too long, and you don’t even remember what I do. Do you understand now? It’s impossible for people in the wasteland to become cannon fodder for the imperial court. You can do whatever you want.
Sometimes things are not like what you said. Now you can die with peace of mind. As for me, I have to die here. It is impossible for us to go back." After the guy said this, he gave himself a knife.
Everyone must be alive, and everyone must die here, so that when the people of the court investigate, they will know that it was the people from the Cao Family Trading Company who killed them, and these two tactics will not continue to be implemented. Otherwise, in the wasteland,
Is there any ethnic group that may really be exterminated because of this incident? They are not opponents of the Cao Family Trading Company, and they cannot use their lives to fill this hole.
