    ?

    Sadly, he returned to the Qinghe County Ferry, crossed the Yellow River in a chartered private boat, and returned to the camp west of the Xiba Ferry.  Delaying time would easily lead to rumors, so he led Zhou Peigong, Su Lun and other guards around the side door, preparing to quietly return to the real imperial camp where the false dragon flag was not displayed.

    Kang Mazi's wishful thinking was in vain. As soon as he approached the Qing army camp, a group of people rushed in front of the main gate of the Qing army camp. The leader was Prince Xian Danzhen, who was sent by the old witch of Xiaozhuang to monitor Kang Mazi.  Mazi couldn't help frowning, and whispered to the guards: "If Prince Xian asks about my whereabouts, just say that I will lead you to Andong (Lianshui) County for a walk."

    The guards and Zhou Peigong agreed, but to Kang Mazi's surprise, after Dan Zhen rushed to kowtow in front of him, he did not ask Kang Mazi on behalf of Xiaozhuang whether he crossed the Yellow River privately, but said in a hurry: "Master, something happened,  Half an hour ago, Cai Shiying, the Governor of Water Transport, and Yang Yingyao, the prefect of Huai'an, just sent people to escort a general of our Qing Dynasty who was once captured by the Wugou rebels.  Army, come to the Xiba camp to kowtow to the master, there is a secret report!"

    "Zhuman?" Kang Mazi was stunned, and suddenly remembered that he had heard of the name Zhuman, and also remembered that Zhuman, who was related to Oboi, was a general recommended by Zhangtai.  , also because of Zhuman's military exploits in Chizhou and Nanjing on the western front before Zhuman, he pinched his nose and canonized Zhuman as the capital.

    After thinking about it for a while, Kang Mazi suddenly remembered something more terrible, and asked in surprise: "What? Zhangtai asked Zhuman to come directly to the Xiba camp to see me? How could Zhangtai's dog slave know what I actually am?"  Is it in the Xiba camp?"

    Zhou Peigong's small face also turned pale all of a sudden, and after he finished speaking, Prince Zhang who was captured by Wu Dog knew that his master was actually in the Xiba camp.  Did not cross the Yellow River?

    "The slave doesn't know." Dan Zhen shook his head and said in a deep voice, "That slave Zhuman said that he would only report to the master when he saw him.  Immediately, it will cause disaster to Xiao Qiang, endangering the lives of tens of thousands of soldiers of our Qing Dynasty, and the consequences will be disastrous!"

    "Enter the camp immediately!" Kang Mazi didn't hesitate, and immediately ordered to go back to the camp, and quickly ordered: "Bring that dog slave Zhuman into my imperial tent, and I will interrogate him myself."

    All the way into the big camp, and hurried into the imperial camp in the middle of the camp, Kang Mazi just wiped his face and changed into a fake dragon robe, and he said before that Zhuman had escorted the imperial tent, and Kang Mazi didn't even bother to eat  After taking a bite, he immediately led a group of trusted guards into the front tent, and the front tent was already full of fully armed Kang Mazi's trusted guards and Shanpu camp thugs, as well as close and trusted guards such as Dan Zhen, La Bu, Cai Yurong and Zhou Peigong.  They were all here, and in the middle of the imperial tent, there were six guards escorting a heavily tied strong man, dressed in ordinary civilian clothes, covered in dust, and there was a little blood on his face besides the dust, it could be seen that he had come a long way, obviously  I suffered a lot.

    "Long live the emperor, long live, long live." Everyone kowtowed together, Zhu Man saw the bright yellow fake dragon robe on Kang Mazi's body, and saw the crowd kowtow, he was overjoyed, and immediately knelt down on his knees, kowtowed and said:  "The guilty ministers are all covered with blue flags, kowtow to the emperor, long live the emperor, long live the emperor."

    "Huang Hai, step forward and identify it." Kang Mazi turned to a first-class guard next to him and shouted: "Look carefully, is he your relative Zhuman?"

    "Cover." Kang Mazi's confidant guard Guerjia Huang Hai agreed, and hurried forward to identify it.  Let me introduce here by the way, this Guerjia Huang Hai is also a member of Oboi's clan, but long before Oboi's downfall, he had already betrayed his clan and turned to Kang Mazi, acting as an insider for Kang Mazi to monitor the Aoboi party.  He also played a major role in Kang Mazi's downfall of the Aobai Party, so after the Aobai Party was completely overthrown, Kang Mazi purged the Guerjia guards in the guard team and expelled all the Guerjia guards from the guard team  , but this Huang Hai was left behind, and he was named a first-class bodyguard.

    Grabbing Zhuman's short hair that had been cut off from the braid, he lifted Zhuman's face to the sky, wiped off the blood stains on Zhuman's face and carefully identified it for a while, then Huang Hai turned to Kang Mazi and said: "Sign up, master, slave!"  I haven't seen this relative before, but I have met his father, Ehe Mahu, this person looks very similar to Ehe Mahu, so it must be true."

    "Very good." Kang Mazi nodded in satisfaction, waved Huang Hai away again, and then turned to Zhuman and shouted: "Bold dog slave, I will not avoid suspicion and designate you as the commander of Xianglan Banner.  Surrender to Wu Gou, what should I do?"

    "Master,?At this time, there was another dull thunder from the due west direction, which was exceptionally clear in the night sky. Kang Mazi couldn't help being even more surprised and puzzled, and murmured: "Could it be that Tu Hai did it? That's not right, Wu Gou  The main force should not have arrived in Huai'an so quickly? Also, Gaojiayan is directly south of the Xiba camp, so why does this sound seem to be coming from the west?"

    "The direction is wrong?" Zhou Peigong also screamed, but after careful calculation, Zhou Peigong collapsed on the ground and screamed frantically: "It's over! It's over! Lu Yifeng's bastard is so vicious and shameless!  Gaojiayan is useless! It is useless!"

    "What do you mean?" Kang Mazi turned to Zhou Peigong and asked in surprise.

    "Lu Yifeng is a thief, he blew up the north embankment of Hongze Lake!" Zhou Peigong's voice echoed in the Qing army camp like a night owl, howling crazily and desperately, "Hongze Lake!  To the north is a huge low-lying area, covering an area of ??hundreds of thousands of acres. There are only some farmland, barren mountains and wasteland, and there are no villages, towns and cities with many Han people! Lu Yifeng, a dog thief, blew up the north embankment of Hongze Lake, and the water of Hongze Lake  It will rush into that low-lying area, and a large lake (now Chengzi Lake) will be formed! The water level of Hongze Lake will also drop sharply!"

    "In this way, when Wu Dog's main force arrives in Huai'an, no matter what happens to Gaojiayan, the water of Hongze Lake will not be able to flood his army, and at most it will only create some difficulties for his march! God kill you, Lu Yifeng  You dog thief, you will really take great pains to prevent you Han barbarians from being swallowed by the flood!"

    "Then why are you still in a daze?" After he came to his senses, Kang Mazi yelled frantically again: "Immediately send someone to send an order to Tuhai to blow up the Gaojiayan!"

    "Master, blasting Gaojiayan at this time will not only not flood Wu Dog, but also cut off the retreat of our main force!" La Bu reminded with a scream.

    Kang Mazi's body shook, and he froze for a long time. After a long time, Kang Mazi also sat down on the ground, shouting hysterically: "God damn Lu Yifeng's bastard! God damn barbarian!"

    No matter how much Kang Mazi and Zhou Peigong scolded Fatty Lu for being cruel and vicious, it was useless.  The eight gaps in the embankment that had been blown up by the Fatty Army were blown away, and the huge gap of more than three miles was quickly rushed out.  The vortex rushed into the current Chengzi Lake, and the water level of the sparsely populated and barren area at that time, the dangerous Hongze Lake, also dropped rapidly

    Later, Chengzi Lake got another name, Fatty Lake.

    At the same time, in the Sizhou embankment area to the northwest of Hongze Lake, fat soldiers disguised as ordinary people were already waiting in battle on the Sizhou embankment where explosives had already been buried.  The water of Zehu Lake drops further.  In this way, although the farmland and villages in Sizhou Prefecture will inevitably suffer some losses, compared with the flooding of the Huaihe River with the explosion of Gaojiayan, it is more than a hundred times smaller.

    Note: There was no Chengzi Lake in the reign of Kang Mazi, and the specific terrain at that time is unknown, but there are indeed many low-lying places around Hongze Lake. In the 19th year of Kang Mazi, the breach of Hongze Lake engulfed the entire city of Sizhou at that time.  It can be seen that Hongze Lake definitely had the opportunity to dam the flood diversion at that time.  (To be continued.
