After Zuo Houde returned home, he also enjoyed his time at home, after all, it was a long time in the army, and Zuo Houde missed the tranquility at home very much.

Every morning, the sound of roosters in the backyard sounded, Zuo Houde got up and washed, and then, continued to practice swords for half an hour, and after breakfast, he and his wife played chess games or wrote in the study in the yard at home.

On this day, Luo Lie came to Zuo Houde's house.

"You don't look like General Yangwei's mansion?" Luo Lie glanced at Zuo Houde's home and couldn't help but say.

"This is the house of my family before, and I didn't think about buying another mansion after I was sealed, firstly, I have lived in this place for more than ten years, and secondly, I am about to go to other places to take office, and there is no need to buy it." Zuo Houde explained.

Luo Lie couldn't help but smile when he heard this: "You have the same idea as me, there is no need, and there will naturally be a reward for making great contributions in the future." ”

Luo Lie thought well, and he would indeed be rewarded for his great achievements in the future.

"Why did my brother come to me?" Only then did Zuo Houde speak, and the two got to the point.

"I'm here to discuss with you about the banquet in the Hou Mansion." Luo Lie said lightly.

Speaking of banquets, since he was named a general, relatives and friends often invite him to banquets, most of them are elders in the clan, but the rest of the banquets are not much, Zuo Houde has been in the army for a short time after all, and there are not many people who invite him.

The only two banquets, one is Luo Lie's and the other is Fu Tianyou. These two people were his former bosses, and Zuo Houde was naturally very polite to come to the door.

As for the banquet of the Hou Mansion that Luo Lie talked about, he was talking about the banquet of the champion Hou Hong Zaixing, a few days ago, the little servant of the champion Hou's family sent an invitation, and Zuo Houde didn't understand it at first.

Later, I understood that he was born as Luo Lie's personal guard, and later he was also a Sima in Luo Lie's camp, and he was born in Fu Tianyou's army. And Luo Lie was born as the champion Hou's Yan Yunqi, and Fu Tianyou was the four major guards under the champion Hou in the past, so it seems that Zuo Houde is a figure of the hardcore champion Hou's faction.

Zuo Houde couldn't help but speak: "Isn't it just a dinner party, what's there?" Just go. ”

Luo Lie also rolled his eyes: "This is the first time I've gone to the champion Hou's house for a banquet." The champion Hou family didn't invite me in previous years, so this is not the first time I have thought about you, and I came to discuss it with you. ”

Zuo Houde was also stunned, he suddenly remembered that Luo Lie was the fan brother of the champion Hou, it turned out that when Zuo Houde was his personal guard, he always said how the champion Hou was. It's understandable when you think about it, Zuo Houde doesn't have Luo Lie's fan mentality, so he looks at it very casually.

"Brother, why do you have to do this, just come to the door when the time comes." Zuo Houde also comforted.

……

Champion Houfu,

At this time, the banquet has begun, there are not many people going to the banquet, the left and right sides are sitting in two columns, each column is more than ten people, there are about thirty people, the champion Hou is sitting above, he is wearing a black robe today, with a smile on his face, Zuo Houde can't help but think of a person when he sees him - King Yan, it is really father and son.

Zuo Houde and Luo Lie also arrived, but sitting at the end, Fu Tianyou was only sitting in the middle of the right column, it can be imagined that although the number of champions in the Hou Mansion is small, the quality is first-class and high, and there are more than 30 characters above the miscellaneous generals. And the champion Hou has more protégés who are sitting in the Quartet, and these are just the tip of the iceberg.

It's normal to think about it, after all, he is the eldest son of King Yan and the future prince.

Champion Hou raised his glass and faced the Quartet: "There are two newcomers at today's banquet, General Luo and General Zuo. ”

Hearing this, everyone's eyes looked at these two people, and Zuo Houde felt the kindness in these eyes, and couldn't help but smile.

"Ben Hou toasts to the two generals!" Champion Hou smiled and lifted his glass.

"I'll thank Master Hou!" The two also raised their wine glasses and raised them to the champion Hou, Luo Lie had admiration in his eyes, and Zuo Houde also had excitement on his face.

Just down, the champion Hou never ignored everyone, and even Zuo Houde felt what it meant to be "at home". After three rounds of drinking, everyone also talked to each other, but Zuo Houde took this opportunity to meet many generals in the army and accumulated a lot of contacts.

When Zuo Houde left the Champion Hou's Mansion, the Champion Hou also sent his family to see him off, which really made Zuo Houde feel the "value" of the Champion Houde.

After staying at home for a few more days, Zuo Houde went to Fu Tianyou's mansion to visit, and this time Zuo Houde asked for help.

"General, I don't know if I can choose dozens of soldiers in the general's army as a subordinate," Zuo Houde asked.

According to the regulations, Zuo Houde can have a hundred troops, which can be counted as Zuo Houde's private army, but they are also paid military salaries. In the army, only the figures above the fourth-rank general are qualified to have a trilogy, and the fourth-rank general is also considered a high-ranking person in the army, who can command three to five battalions, that is, 6,000 to 10,000 people.

Of course, the soldiers under the command of each miscellaneous general must be different, like Fu Tianyou's previous Huwei Zhonglang General is actually a four-rank general, but Fu Tianyou is not a miscellaneous general, he is a four-rank general, and he commanded 10,000 people in the southern camp before.

And like Zuo Houde, if he goes to the county to be a garrison general, he may even have less than 6,000 people. Therefore, the rank is the rank, the position is the position, and there are many people with low weight and high power.

"Feasible." Fu Tianyou quickly agreed, making a trilogy for the general is what many low-level soldiers in the army desire but can't get, not everyone can be promoted in the army and make a fortune, there are many people who can't become long-term in their lives, and even if it is a low-level long-term team rate, it may not be treated well, and the prime minister is a seven-rank official in front of the door, this sentence has never been false.

In the barracks, Zuo Houde soon chose a ministry, and there were thousands of people who were willing to become a subordinate, and Zuo Houde chose among these thousands of people, and it was soon good.

Zuo Houde returned home, and most of those parts returned to their own homes to clean up, after all, they would have to go to the field with Zuo Houde to garrison at that time.

Zuo Houde stayed at home for five days, and finally received an order from the military to garrison Zuo Houde in Zhuo County. Zuo Houde knows that place, Zhuo County is close to the northwest, and the climatic conditions are not bad, but it is not very rich, but the population is large.

Zuo Houde immediately asked his parents to pack up his things, yes, Zuo Houde wanted to bring the whole family to Zhuo County, because, if there is no accident in the field, he will stay for many years, Zuo Houde doesn't want to see his family all year round, so he told his parents, and they all agreed.
