After Zhao Lan returned to Tiandou City, he went to Lantang Heavy Industry to deal with development matters.

Zhao Lan also kept a close eye on Emperor Xue Ye's physical condition, and at the same time asked the People's Army to strengthen training. With the continuous accumulation of bullets and artillery shells, the People's Army's combat effectiveness decline caused by military expansion was gradually recovering.

In the work of going to the countryside, advanced ideas were spread to the grassroots people. The common people of Wuhun Continent had been oppressed by the nobles for countless years, so that even the common people themselves had formed the stereotype that they were lowly and despicable. Under the influence of advanced ideas, people quickly changed from slave mentality.

The sickle and hammer flags representing farmers and workers also fluttered at the entrances of each village. Every person who was influenced by advanced culture looked at this flag as if they were facing a god and wanted to worship it. After receiving the advanced production machines produced by Lan Tang Heavy Industry, each village freed their hands and formed a militia, and their weapons were crossbows produced by Tang Sect.

Advanced ideas swept through the countryside of the Tiandou Empire like a wave. Due to the long-established aristocratic rule, no aristocrat took this seriously. Because in the Wuhun Continent, soul power is the only thing that matters, and these ordinary people without soul power cannot shake the rule of the aristocracy. So the vigorous revolutionary ideas swept through the lower classes of the Tiandou Empire, while the aristocracy was still living a life of luxury.

Emperor Xue Ye seemed to have anticipated something. He was so exhausted that he originally had a few years to live, but now he was bedridden.

Zhao Lan looked out the window at the cloudy and rainy sky and said slowly, "The weather is going to change."

A few months later, Emperor Xue Ye was seriously ill and didn't have much time left. Although Emperor Xue Ye tried to conceal the fact, when the People's Army blockaded the imperial city, they also infiltrated the entire imperial city.

As a prince who had endured hardships for many years, Xue Beng could naturally sense the coming storm. However, he was still only a prince, and even if he was now the emperor of the Tiandou Empire, he could not stop Lan Tang Heavy Industry from eroding the imperial power step by step. The Qibao Liuli Sect also fully supported Lan Tang Heavy Industry.

The news that Emperor Xue Ye was seriously ill and had not much time left soon landed on Zhao Lan's desk. Zhao Lan summoned all the board members, except for a few who went to Poseidon Island for training, all the other directors were present.

Zhao Lan announced his plan directly at the meeting. Niu Gao, Bai He and Yang Wudi were all very surprised. Only Titan had an expression as if he had expected it. After all, his son and grandson were high-ranking officials of the People's Army, so they naturally knew Zhao Lan's plan.

Bai He was still a little confused. You thick-browed, big-eyed guy, our Min clan hasn't even had a few days of good time with you, and you're going to rebel! Bai He felt a little regretful, but seeing that no one present had a clear objection, he didn't say anything.

Yang Wudi was very confident in his own strength. Even if the rebellion failed, he could still run away with the Pozhi clan. However, looking at Zhao Lan's appearance, he felt that this could succeed.

Seeing that no one objected, Zhao Lan directly gave the order. The entire Lan Tang Heavy Industry entered a level one alert state. The highest military unit of the People's Army was raised from the division level to the army level. Three divisions formed an army, and four armies were formed. Each army had about 50,000 people, and training began.

The People's Army completed the training of its troops at an incredible speed.

Two months later, Emperor Xue Ye called Xue Beng to his bedside. The old Emperor Xue Ye looked at this handsome boy with a resolute gaze and felt a little sad. This was his only son left. Emperor Xue Ye used his old hands to tremble and touch Xue Beng's face. Xue Beng felt his father's touch and his eyes gradually filled with tears.

Xue Ye said tremblingly: "Child, you have suffered."

Xue Beng couldn't hold back any longer and burst into tears. He grabbed Xue Ye's hand and said, "It's not hard, it's not hard, Father, you will definitely get better."

Xue Ye sighed. Because his movements were too big, his weak body was directly affected and he kept coughing.

After a while, Xue Ye looked at Xue Beng with difficulty and said, "Kid, you have to live well."

Originally, Emperor Xue Ye wanted to touch his only son again, but before his palm touched Xue Beng's face, he fell down weakly.

The news of Xue Ye's death soon reached Zhao Lan's ears. Zhao Lan looked at the sky, which was drizzling, as if the heavens were pitying the poor old man. However, Zhao Lan thought of the civilians in the Wuhun Continent and the simple smiles of the uncles and aunts when he was still in the Holy Soul Village. His eyes became firm.

Immediately ordered:

1. Order the First Army of the People's Army to take control of the military camps near Tiandou City;

2. Order the Second Army of the People's Army to enter Juntiandou City, control all major streets, and control the Imperial City and the Wuhun Temple in Tiandou City, and require direct shooting in the face of resistance;

3. Order the Third Army of the People's Army to control the large cities around Tiandou City;

4. Order the Fourth Army of the People's Army to serve as a reserve force to guard against threats from the Spirit Hall and the Xingluo Empire;

5. All actions that disturb the public and rob the public’s property are prohibited. Once discovered, the person will be shot.

With the issuance of Zhao Lan's five orders, the People's Army was fully mobilized, and Zhao Lan also invited Niu Gao and Yang Wudi to go to the Wuhun Temple to help the Second Army control the Wuhun Temple.

After hearing this, Yang Wudi and Niu Gao's eyes lit up. This Zhao Lan understands us. And Titan took the disciples of the four sects and stayed behind in Lan Tang Heavy Industry.

With the full support of the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect and the opening of the Tiandou City Gate, the Second Army of the People's Army entered the city directly.

The people of Tiandou City were very curious when they saw the People's Army marching in neat and orderly formations wearing camouflage uniforms and helmets. However, due to the solemn and murderous atmosphere, they could only return home quickly and watch this army secretly.

The Second Division of the Second Army of the People's Army was responsible for controlling the Spirit Temple. The Second Division of the Second Army directly besieged the Spirit Temple. The Platinum Bishop Salas slammed the table in anger. He besieged the Temple when the Tiandou Palace was in chaos, and now he is besieging it again. Do you really think that he, a Soul Douluo, is easy to mess with?

Suddenly, a burst of intensive gunfire rang out all around, and the rumbling of cannons sounded like a symphony, playing the tragic ending of the Spirit Temple.

Salas was also confused when he saw the fierce attack of the People's Army, but he did not hesitate and rushed out directly. He was blocked by Yang Wudi and Niu Gao who had been waiting for a long time. Then Salas let out a pig-slaughtering howl, but it only provided a note in the dense sound of gunfire.

The 3rd Division of the 2nd Army directly attacked the Imperial City. The sound of artillery and gunfire startled Xue Beng, who had not yet recovered from the grief of his father's death.

Soon the gate of the imperial palace was smashed by cannons, and then the Third Division rushed directly into the palace and captured all the members of the Tiandou royal family who had not had time to escape.

The First Army directly surrounded the military camp, and the artillery bombarded it for an hour. In the end, Marshal Ge Long of the Tiandou Empire had no choice but to surrender. The People's Army rushed forward and took control of the entire military camp.

The Third Army also quickly took control of the surrounding cities.

With the sound of a cannon in Tiandou City, the vast revolutionary thought continued to sweep across the entire Tiandou Empire. The various kingdoms and principalities of the Tiandou Empire wanted to take this opportunity to move into Tiandou City, but the civilians in their own cities also started a revolution after receiving those Tang Sect crossbows.

The revolutionary wave swept across the Tiandou Empire like a prairie fire.
