I am Emperor Wanli

Chapter 454: A cloud-piercing arrow, thousands of troops come to meet
Li Tingji asked quickly, "Ming Shou, what's going on?"

The man named Ming Shou replied, "Those losers from Dingde Academy and Wenchang Academy, knowing that most of our schoolmates were going to Xishan to watch the football game, made an appointment to fight at the school and avenge their previous humiliation!"

"To avenge the previous shame?"

Zhu Yijun was very curious and was about to ask when Li Mingchun rushed out of the classroom.

"Ming Shou, who's calling?"

Mingshou repeated his words again, and Li Mingchun rubbed his hands like a fly rubbing its hands.

"The idiots from Dingde Academy and Wenchang Academy suddenly came to their senses and started playing the art of war. They actually knew how to avoid the strong and attack the weak. Where are they now?"

“Just entered Xizhimen.”

"It's still in time!" Li Mingchun shouted excitedly.

"Li Zishan, Wang Baoliang, Luo Guangning, Wu Yongqing, the four of you are good at riding, get on your horses immediately and go get reinforcements."

"Teacher, Xishan is a bit far. I'm worried that I won't be able to make it back and forth."

"You are stupid! Only one person needs to go to Xishan. The other three can go to the Imperial College, White Pagoda, Golden Terrace, Wensi, Taiji, and Xinglin College to report the news. There are many students who graduated from Yi Nian Tang there. If Yi Nian is in trouble, they will call their friends to come to support them."

"it is good!"

"Go quickly, go quickly! Tell everyone to gather around Sun Central Square and wait for our signal."

"it is good!"

The four young students left in a hurry.

"The rest of the people were divided into five teams according to their classes: Team A, Team B, Team C, Team D, and Team E. Team A and Team B immediately went to guard the front gate and close the main gate; Team C went to guard the back gate; Team D and Team E immediately went to the martial arts hall and collected the wooden swords and spears there, distributed them to the students in each team, and then gathered in the main hall as a reserve team."

Li Chunming gave orders and teachers including Shen Wanxiang, who came out from another classroom, worked out a plan to "meet the enemy."

Everyone was stunned.

When did Tanhualang become so powerful?
"Li Tanhua comes from a family of a thousand households in Jinshanwei. When he was young, he joined the Chinese people to fight against the Japanese pirates. He is bold and brave." Li Tingji introduced with a laugh.

Big waves wash over the sand!

The Japanese invasion in the southeast caused millions of people in the southeast to suffer, but also allowed many talents to stand out.

"Assistant Professor Li, who is Ming Shou who just came to report the news?"

"Oh, Wang Yongji, Wang Mingshou, is from Jinjiang, Quanzhou, and is a fellow villager of Mr. Zhuowu. He was a third-class Jinshi in the Wuchen year of the Longqing reign, and a censor of the Censorate. He was hired by Mr. Zhuowu as a professor at the Imperial College and a teacher at Yi Nian Public School."

Zhu Yijun bowed and asked, "Mr. Mingshou, how did you know that Dingde Academy and Wenchang Academy were going to cause trouble at Yi Nian Public School?"

Wang Yongji saw that Zhu Yijun had an extraordinary demeanor and thought that he was a member of an official or noble family who had come to Yi Nian Public School to inspect his son, so he bowed and replied.

"Sir, I had something to do outside Xizhimen this morning. After I was done, I returned to the city. When I passed by the neighboring villages outside Xizhimen, I saw Dingde Academy and Wenchang Academy gathered there. There were about 1,300 to 1,400 people, and they were aggressive and vowed to humiliate Yi Nian Public School."

"Assistant Professor Li, do Dingde Academy and Wenchang Academy have such a deep prejudice against Yi Nian Public School?"

Li Tingji laughed: "Prejudices have long been accumulated, as deep as the abyss of the sea. Yi Nian Public School has the upper hand in everything, suppressing them in everything. Dingde Academy and Wenchang Academy are very angry.

They also had a group of famous scholars serving as teachers. Their academic opinions were contrary to those of Mr. Zhuowu, and they were very dissatisfied with the educational philosophy of Yi Nian Public School. Normally, when students from both sides met on the street, they would most likely fight.

However, the students of Dingde Academy and Wenchang Academy were lazy and weak, so they were defeated nine times out of ten. They were laughed at by the students of Yi Nian Public School as sissies, and the hatred deepened. "

While Zhu Yijun was talking, Li Chunming and Shen Wanxiang led several teachers to organize more than 400 students.

These students were all "senior" students taking the Imperial College entrance examination. They were all fifteen or sixteen years old. They had studied at Yi Nian Public School for several years, and developed both intellectually and physically.

Two-thirds of them are orphans of military martyrs and local orphans, and they are wild in temperament.

The remaining one-third are the children of nobles and civil and military officials, and they are very brave.

These students were wild and courageous. When they heard that students from Dingde Academy and Wenchang Academy were coming to their doorstep, they showed no fear. Instead, they shouted excitedly.

After being dispatched and commanded by Li Chunming and Shen Wanxiang, they were immediately divided into five teams and left like a whirlwind.

"Sir," Fang Liang said carefully, "Dingde Academy, Wenchang Academy, and Yinian Public School are all the most famous academies in the capital. If a fight involving thousands of people were to happen, it would probably cause a big uproar in the court and the public."

Everyone turned their attention to Zhu Yijun.

As long as he revealed his identity and stood at the gate of Yinian Public School, the fight would not break out.

Zhu Yijun said with a smile: "What are you afraid of? It's not a war, it's just a fight between students. Besides, the years of studying without fighting are incomplete!
Let's go to the gate and take a look."

Judging from his tone, he seems to be anxious for the world to be in chaos.

After waiting for half an hour, the student lying on the wall shouted, "Here they come! They are here!"

Team A and Team B, armed with wooden swords and spears, formed more than ten mandarin duck formations, ready to fight.

Li Tingji said to Zhu Yijun: "Sir, there is a bell tower over there, which is high up and can just see the scene outside the gate."

Zhu Yijun was overjoyed: "Okay, let's go and take a look."

Zhu Yijun and several others climbed up the bell tower, squeezed inside, and looked out.

I saw more than a thousand people gathered at the gate of Yinian Public School in a noisy manner. There were several scholars standing in front. Zhu Yijun had sharp eyes and recognized a few familiar faces.

Shen Li and Xu Guo stood at the front with gloomy faces, staring at the gate of the public school fiercely.

Behind the two men stood several scholars who looked like teachers. One of them was the most excited and active. He raised his arms and shouted loudly, as if he was issuing a mobilization manifesto before a battle. His voice was passionate and emotional.

Zhu Yijun asked curiously, "Who is he?"

Someone who knew him immediately answered, "It's Shen Yikuan, who was also a Jinshi in the second year of Longqing. It is said that he is a brilliant writer and has a great reputation among the famous scholars in the capital. He is regarded as a literary talent of the younger generation.

The person next to him is Zhu Geng and Zhu Shaoqin, who are his classmates. "Zhu Yijun understood that this was the continuation of the struggle between the old and new schools. Yi Nian Public School was the base camp of the new school founded by Li Zhi, and it had long aroused the dissatisfaction of the famous scholars of the old school.

But he supported the new learning, and the people below him knew it and intentionally or unintentionally favored the new learning.

Apart from other things, the old school of thought could not find a suitable place to establish Dingde Academy and Wenchang Academy in the five cities of the capital, so it could only find a manor outside Xizhimen as a schoolhouse.

Shen Li, Xu Guo and other talented students of the old school were full of anger. They took advantage of the personal hatreds between the students on both sides and incited the students of the two academies. They took the opportunity to dampen the spirit of Yi Nian Public School and severely tarnish its reputation.

"You mediocre students from Yi Nian Public School, come out quickly, the grandfathers are here to teach you about your studies!"

"You bastards from Yi Nian Public School, open the door! Don't be cowards!"

"You guys from Yi Nian Public School, aren't you usually very powerful? Why are you hiding in your shells and not daring to come out now?"

Students from Dingde Academy and Wenchang Academy gathered in groups, shouting loudly and laughing heartily from time to time.

Today I finally got the chance to block these bastards from Yinian Public School at the door of their home and vent all my pent-up anger.

Li Chunming climbed up the cypress tree, hid in the shade and had a clear view of the scene outside the gate, then he came up with a plan.

He called Team B and Team D together, gave them some instructions quietly, and then led them to the side door.

Suddenly, someone came running from Xizhimen Street, shouting loudly: "Stop! Don't mess around!"

When they heard the sound, they turned around and saw Zhao Zhigao and Chen Yubei running towards them, sweating profusely.

"Mr. Zhonghua, Mr. Weizhen, what are you doing?"

Shen Li turned around and looked at the two of them, and said angrily: "We are promoting the righteous spirit and eradicating heresy and evil!"

Zhao Zhigao tried to dissuade them, saying, "Gentlemen, this is the emperor's feet, the best place in the world. If we cause trouble, it will be bad for everyone!"

"Ending? What kind of ending do we need? Today, either we give them a slap in the face, or they step on our skin. There are only these two endings!"

Shen Yiquan shouted, and Zhu Geng echoed him angrily.

We have more than 1,400 people on our side, several times more than the 400 people on Yi Nian Public School. We have the advantage and are sure to win!

"Ziwei, what are you doing!?"

Zhao Zhigao and Chen Yubei were polite to Shen Li and Xu Guo, but they were not so polite to their classmate Shen Yikuan.

"Not only did you bring people here to provoke them, but you also added fuel to the fire!"

Shen Yi Guan stared at Zhao and Chen with a cold gaze. Today, he felt that the majority was right and justice was on his side, so he said proudly, "I am going to challenge them.

Good and evil cannot coexist!

Today, we, disciples of the Holy Religion and followers of Cheng and Zhu, follow the righteous principles of Heaven and uphold the uprightness in our hearts to come to this evil place to cleanse it of the evil haze.

"In a bright and clear world, with bright sun and moon, how can there be room for evil spirits and monsters!"

Before Shen Yikuan could finish his righteous words, there were sudden exclamations from the side. The students from Dingde Academy and Wenchang Academy over there ran away in panic, like a group of mice being chased by a cat.

Although the students of the two colleges here were panicked, they were not in chaos for the time being. However, they could not withstand the stupid teammates who rushed over over there, like rats with their tails on fire, and they threw more than a thousand students from the two colleges into a mess.

These students, who are lazy and rely solely on the sense of justice in their hearts, do not understand the situation and follow their stupid teammates around everywhere, becoming stupid teammates themselves.

As more and more stupid teammates appeared, more than a thousand students from the two colleges fled in all directions, filling Xizhimen Street and Rizhongfang. They ran for a long time before standing in shock, looking around and asking around, what happened and why everyone was running.

Li Chunming led two teams of more than 100 students from Yi Nian Public School, went out from the side door, stuck to the corner of the wall, sneaked to the flanks of the students of the two colleges, and then attacked unexpectedly.

Armed with wooden swords and spears, they beat the two or three hundred students from the two academies who were caught off guard, making them scream and howl in panic and flee in all directions. This caused the entire formation to fall into chaos, and all the people fled in all directions like ants whose nest was blown up.

Li Chunming did not chase after them, but immediately "left the battle" with a hundred students and went to the main gate of the public school. Shen Wanxiang also commanded the students to open the main gate and let Li Chunming and others in.

In the first battle, students from Yinian Public School won a great victory!
The students from both colleges reacted and gathered at the gate of the public school again.

Famous scholars such as Shen Li and Xu Guo had ashen faces, while the masterminds of this incident such as Shen Yikuan and Zhu Geng had dark faces and were furious.

More than 1,400 people against 400 people, and they were ambushed by someone and were driven around like chickens and ducks!
How embarrassing!
Shen Yi Guan gritted his teeth and said bitterly: "Since they are playing tricks on us, we won't be polite. Go, quickly collect wooden swords, wooden spears and wooden sticks, and everyone should have one. Then look for ladders everywhere, we will set up ladders, climb over the wall, and smash their turtle shells!"

"Shen Ziwei, where can we find wooden swords and spears in such a short time?"

"Buy it with money. As long as it's a stick that can be used to hit people, you can buy it for money! There are also ladders. Pay more money!"

"it is good!"

After waiting for more than two quarters of an hour, the students from the two colleges, under the command of Shen Yikuan and others, reluctantly formed several teams, carrying ladders, eager to try, and prepared to climb over the wall.

Xu Guo stroked his beard and said to Shen Li: "Your disciple has a great mind, a profound strategy, calm command and good coordination. You are a great talent for the country!"

Shen Li replied complacently: "You are a man of extraordinary talent, but it's a pity that your pearl is covered in dust and not recognized by its owner!"

Li Chunming inside was also ready and was making arrangements.

"Wang Baoliang, Luo Guangning, and Wu Yongqing reported that the students from the Imperial College and other colleges had gathered two to three thousand friends and relatives to block Xizhimen Street and Xinkaidao Street, making it impossible for the students from the two colleges to escape.

Now I give the order, Team A, B and C will charge out from the main gate, Team D and Team E will go around to their left wing from the side gate and attack them from the side. When His Royal Highness was teaching at Xishan Military Academy, he said that it doesn't matter if the moves are old-fashioned, as long as they work!
Today we must show our might and let the world know that we are good at both literature and martial arts, and are good at reasoning!"

Everyone laughed loudly, it was so heroic!
After all the teams were ready, Li Chunming took a fire starter, lit a firework and kicked it twice.

The double kick dragged a long red firework and flew up into the sky. With a loud bang, it exploded in the air like a chrysanthemum that suddenly bloomed.

Many people in the five cities of the capital were startled by the sudden explosion of fireworks and looked up.

"Damn! Such a big deal!" Li Xuan and others couldn't help but exclaimed.

Zhu Yijun laughed out loud: "One arrow pierces the clouds, and thousands of troops rush to meet us!"
