Or, simply, Big boss needed founds to make his own private army, separate from Miller, and he made an agreement with Zero to get the necessary money.

Miller on the other hand, seeing BB go back to Zero, would never stand that. Driven by revenge, he would come to hate Zero. Eventually he would lose everything he had, private army and such, and end up being nothing but a broken man driven by revenge. His anger and feeling of treason towards BB would eventually grow even bigger than his anger against Cypher, and he would end up working for FOXHOUND much later, only to take his revenge against BB.

Or they simply never realized Cypher and the patriots were the same, and went to work at FOXHOUND not knowing Cypher was behind it.

I find the idea that Big Boss and Miller not realizing that Cipher and the Patriots were one and the same to be... well, to be pretty stupid on their part. Sure, one could argue that Cipher and the Patriots could theoretically pose as different groups due to having different names, but the main problem with that is that, at least in regards to BB, Paz/Pacifica made it exceptionally clear that the Patriots and Cipher were one and the same when she basically told Big Boss about his and Zero's falling out. Then again, how Big Boss reacted to that was especially odd, since he looked like he didn't even remember, and he even implied in a briefing tape regarding the subject that he "wasn't sure" of the connection between Zero and Cipher, despite being a former Patriot founder. I mean, even Solid Snake immediately deduced Drebin's role in injecting him with the second FOXDIE when he learned about the second strain from Naomi. Yea, it is not convincing to say BB works for FOXHOUND not knowing who is the real boss behind it, consider how much BB knew as a former member of the Patriots.

Ha, now that Miller and BB have problems with one another but go back to FOXHOUND one after another, life's really complicated... not to mention this XOF thing too...
