Chapter 61 Opportunity
Over the years, the big and small wars between Dayan and Ming have almost never stopped. Of course, the battlefield is in the original Liang Kingdom, where there is indeed a plain, suitable for both sides to fight.

Of course, if it is said that even if the Ming Dynasty annexed the original Liang Kingdom four years ago, the people of the world still believe that in this north-south dispute, the Yan Kingdom will be the final winner.

But four years later, this view has almost been reversed. The main reason is that in the four years of confrontation between the two countries, Yan has more losses than wins, not to mention water battles. That is Nanming's advantage, but The most famous cavalry in Youzhou failed to gain the upper hand in the battle.

In recent years, Lu Xiaoxian's fame has spread throughout the Yan land. Fighting generals to kill enemies, sprinting in front of the battle, and leading troops to confront each other, Lu Xiaoxian has everything he can say on the battlefield, and he has turned into a nightmare for the Yan army.

With Lu Xiaoxian's performance, even Zuo Houde, who was tied with Lu Xiaoxian on the battlefield a few years ago, became famous. At that time, Hong Zaixing sent someone down to condolences to Zuo Houde.

At that time, Zuo Houde was a little suspicious, but later he found out that it was Lu Xiaoxian's fault.

……

Zuo Houde is now sitting in the military tent, surrounded by Zuo Houde's cronies. Over the years, thanks to the layers of interests, Zuo Houde can be said to have corrupted all the high-level generals. In order to vigorously promote his cronies and empty them out, Zuo Houde has already spoken his words in the army.

Everyone was a little nervous, even Zuo Houde showed a sense of urgency, everyone was high-level in the military, and even did "smuggling" together, it can be said that there were not many things that would make them show Tension, so that it shows on the face.

Everyone couldn't help being nervous. They were all trusted aides promoted by Zuo Houde. They were on the same boat as Zuo Houde. Their wealth and interests were all connected with Zuo Houde. Over the years, they all knew and participated in Zuo Houde's life. Regarding the matter of raising a private army, I understand that my general has a lot of plans.

Now everyone is waiting for a message—a message that will determine their future.

The news was delayed, Gao Ming stood up, and said anxiously: "Patriarch, why don't I go and have a look!"

Zuo Houde glanced at him, Gao Ming held back his impatience, and sat down embarrassingly.

From time to time, news finally came from outside the tent. A messenger bowed on his knees and said, "General, Dayan has been defeated!"

When Zuo Houde heard the news, he was relieved, stood up all of a sudden, and suppressed his excitement: "Got it! Let's go!"

That's right, Zuo Houde has been in Dingcheng for four years. Generally speaking, the side will guard the side and change every six years. Zuo Houde doesn't want to lose all his efforts.

So in the past four years, Zuo Houde has been accumulating strength while waiting for the opportunity.

Finally, half a year ago, Zuo Houde finally got the news that Hong Zaixing sent hussar general Huang Xiaoyuan to lead 20 troops to Nanming. Zuo Houde realized that this was a good opportunity. If Dayan won, Zuo Houde would also Just continue to lurk, but if he loses, Zuo Houde will take this opportunity to separate himself from one side.

Zuo Houde looked at the people present, and said slowly: "You have heard it too, the golden opportunity we have been waiting for has arrived, listen to my military order!"

Everyone clasped their fists together: "No!"

Zuo Houde immediately issued a military order: "Where is the wisdom? You must lead thousands of troops to raid Hongchang!"

Gao Ming immediately echoed: "No!"

Zuo Houde continued to order: "Qian Yuan, I order you to lead five thousand troops and directly destroy Yu Yuan!"

Qian Yuan immediately echoed: "No!"

Zuo Houde nodded and said: "Li Yu, Gao Da, Zhang Shun, you and the other three will each lead [-] troops to attack the three cities of Khan, Guangyun, and Liyi!"

The three of them looked at Zuo Houde with excitement on their faces, and echoed: "No!"

Zuo Houde also showed a hint of excitement, and continued: "Wanda, Zhang Ming, Yu Pengfei, Shi Sui, Li Ying, you and five people, each with five thousand troops, raided Gaoyuan, Midi, Deli, and Qu in the east. Also, the five cities of Heling."

As soon as the five people received the military order, they showed excitement and said, "No!"

After Zuo Houde gave the order, he looked at the crowd, most of these were unsuccessful talents in the army promoted by Zuo Houde himself, Zuo Houde said: "Everyone! This is the time to make contributions. Even if the southeast side of the city is separatized, no matter if it is a high-ranking official or a generous salary, it will be within reach! Remember what I said? Read it!"

Everyone said with excitement on their faces: "The princes and generals are kind to each other!"

Zuo Houde waved his hand and said, "Send troops!"

A group of people left, Zuo Houde looked at their backs, couldn't stop his excitement, and muttered in his mouth: "Someone from my Zuo can also have his own piece of property!"

……

Back in his mansion, the first thing Zuo Houde wanted to find was his family. One month ago, Zuo Houde sent Yao Ping to Youzhou in the name of a merchant, waiting for news. If Dayan was defeated, he would go quietly. To pick up my own family.

Zuo Houde didn't want to leave his family in Youzhou, waiting for Hong Zaixing to threaten him with his family.

Counting the time, it should be up, and sure enough, just after returning to his mansion, Zuo Houde saw his parents, wife and children, and Zuo Houde hurried forward to express condolences.

"Father, mother!" Zuo Houde hurriedly called on him, expressing his thoughts.

Zuo Houde then picked up his children again, looked at his wife and the whole family, sitting in the lobby, reminiscing about the past.

No one in the family mentioned the reason why Zuo Houde picked them up, and they all guessed it, but no one said it. The whole family just sat together and chatted about the homework.

At night, when Zuo Houde and others were going to rest, Zuo Jizu said: "De'er, are you going to rebel?"

Zuo Houde looked at him and nodded.

Zuo Jizu sighed: "Go!"

Back in the bedroom, Zuo Houde was hugging his wife, Huang Rong looked worried at this time, but Zuo Houde knew what his wife was thinking, so he said, "Are you worried about father-in-law and mother-in-law?"

Huang Rong nodded, Zuo Houde lightly patted his wife on the shoulder and said: "This time, my father-in-law, mother-in-law, and your two elder brothers also have their own families. I can't take them out for a while. But it's okay, this time I will not raise the flag of rebellion, and Hong Zaixing will not do anything to Yue Zhang and the others!"

Hearing Zuo Houde's words, Huang Rong's face became a little better, and thinking of Zuo Houde's saying that he would not raise the flag of rebellion, he asked, "What exactly is your husband going to do?"

Zuo Houde looked at his wife, raised his head from time to time and said: "Does the prince have a kindness? Zuo Houde's fate is in my own hands. In the future, Yu'er and Yao'er, I don't want them to look at other people. Act on your face!"

When Huang Rong heard Zuo Houde's words, she didn't know what to say for a while, so she could only slowly say: "The husband's affairs are still up to the husband!"

Zuo Houde looked at his wife and couldn't help smiling: "If you have a wife like this, what more can a husband ask for!"
