Xinhua No.5 Middle School was the place where scholars lived in the imperial examination era.

The school was founded in 1784 (Qing? Gan Long Chen Jia). Its predecessor, Wenchang Pavilion, was a place for scholars in the imperial examination era, and its school-running history can be traced back to the years of Hongzhi and Jiajing in Ming Dynasty. In the year of Hongzhi Jiazi (1504), Zou University took the initiative to set up a private school, which opened the wind of studying for exams. After the dissolution of Zou, a young man from Taibu Temple, he returned to Li and founded Sanxiang Society in southern Zhejiang. "Since then, talents have come forth in large numbers, and scholars have come forth in large numbers."

During the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty (AD 1762), Zou Shiyi, Chen Luyan and Yuan were born in Yi Kuang. After having obtained the rural examination, I returned to my hometown, stayed at Zhouxiang Post and swam to the shore. Seeing that there was a class meeting there, he consulted with the local sages and decided to set up a Wenchang class meeting. "62 people are happy, follow." /kloc-at the age of 0/8, he was already a literacy lecturer, teaching in turn. His first headmaster was Zou Jie, the heir of Susong Prefecture (Guan Ying, No.10,000, Qing Dynasty? This is the beginning of school.

During the reign of Qianlong Chen Jia (A.D. 1784), local sages Zou Shiyi (the word Jieting, Longquan), Peng Xichuan, Zou Jingkui, etc. Find a fixed place for "preventing leisure and relaxing", invite colleagues and donate money to establish Lan Academy in Longtan Bay. Zou Shiyi "although he is seventy years old, his strength has declined", he still "does not hesitate to work hard on all bamboo and wood bricks". It lasted for three years and was completed in the autumn of Bingwu (AD 1786).

In front of the academy is a pavilion, which is three feet high and can be seen from a distance. The name of the pavilion is Wenchang Pavilion, and the pavilion is dedicated to Emperor Wenchang, so it is commonly known as Wenchang Pavilion. You reset the seat number again, imitating the regulations of the examination room shed of the National Academy of Sciences. In the vertical hall, there are four doors and three rooms, and there are all kinds of tea kitchens and toilets. There is a statue of Saint Wang Wenxuan in the Hall of Ursa Major, so it is also called Dacheng Hall. Students enter the hospital every day, first go to the Dacheng Hall to worship Confucius, and then enter the room for classes. Since then, Wenchang will have a fixed place. In the imperial examination era, Zou, Zou Ling, Zou Chunsheng and Zou Zuxian successively entered the imperial examination, and there were countless candidates, which made this era brilliant.

Zou Jie, the first director, was a missionary in Guiyang County in A.D. 1768, then transferred to Fanchang County, yi county City, Anhui Province, and then went to susong county, all of whom were well-known. Although he is not famous for his administration, he is famous for advocating learning, breaking rules, cracking down on powerful people, caring for the weak and unjust imprisonment. When he was ordered by susong county, he wrote a couplet for the county government: "Those who have ghosts and gods have constitutions; If you do something wrong, you will be far away from your children and grandchildren. " He was poor and law-abiding all his life. There is no money for burial after death. Burying and stealing, beheading.

After more than 100 years, in the fifth year of Guangxu (AD 1888), Taitai students Zou, Gansu Houbu Tongzhi Zeng Jichang and Yunnan Zhongdian Tongzhi Zou Deyan were selected to see the academy, and the building was dilapidated, so they sought once and for all and proposed to donate money for reconstruction. * * * There are many people who spend more than 3,600 gold. The first discussion is donation, and hundreds of people are enthusiastic. However, rich people even have buildings, and Xiaomi is red and rotten, less than a dollar. "

In the Qing Dynasty, the government announced the promotion of foreign learning, and Mr. Yang and Mr. Zou Yutai changed the academy into a township school, which was called "Wenchang Pavilion School". Influenced by the reform idea, the school not only offers courses such as ancient prose, Tang poetry and Song ci, but also studies Europe and America, adding courses such as history, geography, nature, art and style. Teachers are all young people in their twenties and thirties, except those venerable old scholars who teach ancient Chinese. Some of them are studying in Japan and are members of the League. They had contacts with Sun Yat-sen, Chen Tianhua, Huang Xing, Song, Cai E, Zou and others. They are knowledgeable and progressive, and their classes are very popular with students. Tan Renfeng (Yatian, not far from Yangxi, now Longhui County) is often invited to give lectures and publicize the "Three People's Principles, the Five-Power Constitution and the General Plan for the Founding of the People's Republic of China". Students Zou Tianshan and Zou were deeply encouraged and took part in the Revolution of 1911 and became the backbone. Later, Zou Jinhui entered the Whampoa Military Academy after graduation, and served as the battalion commander of the Ye Ting Independent Regiment from 65438 to 0926. He was bravely wounded in the battle of Tingsiqiao. From 65438 to July 8, 0929, he died for his country because of injury. The national government approved him as the head of the regiment and awarded him the rank of lieutenant colonel.

In the early years of the Republic of China, Zou Deyan, a magistrate of a county, resigned from Yunnan and returned to his hometown to discuss with his colleagues, expand the school building, and set about raising funds and preparing materials. However, due to the changeable situation, the spread of military disasters, rampant banditry, panic, and scattered materials without building. The school was also closed in the sixth year of the Republic of China (19 17).

In the 13th year of the Republic of China (1924), Luo, Luo Jueduo, Zou returned from the provincial capital and * * * proposed to resume school. After discussion, they unanimously agreed to "change its name to' Dunxin Senior Primary School in Six Districts of Xinhua County'". Luo, Luo Xiangxun, Yuan (the above three were comrades' teachers in the First Division), Zou Manzhi, Yang and Liuli were invited to give lectures. High-level teachers trained high-level students, which made this period brilliant. In the Republic of China 15 (1926), Xinhua held a unified graduation examination for primary school students in the county, and Dunxin high school students included the top ten in the county. It caused a great sensation in the society, and the county government awarded the "Light of Dunxin" in recognition. In order to catch up with Dunxin, Datong Town of Xinhua changed the academic system of high school from two years to three years, but failed to catch up with Dunxin's high school. During this period, many Dunxin graduates devoted themselves to the revolutionary torrent during the Great Revolution. For example, Zou Xinzhu and Zou Zixiong were admitted to the Whampoa Military Academy after graduation. Zou, Zou Jinzhuan and Zou Jintuo embarked on the revolutionary road after graduation, and some later held important leadership positions.

Yuan Xinhu (formerly known as Zou Gaoqing, whose word is Ding Cai) 1927 entered Dunxin High School, 1929 graduated with honors, and 1937 was admitted to the bombed Beiyang Institute of Technology. Yuan organized the Anti-Japanese Salvation Army to go south. Later, he learned that Beiyang Institute of Technology moved northward, rushed to An, moved to Yan 'an, and changed his name to Yuan Xinhu. He was sent by the party to Suiyuan Fu Jun as the Minister of Propaganda Department of Suiyuan Provincial Government. 1949 Xi An Jiefang served as the liaison director of Northwest Military and Political Committee. 1953 was transferred to directly under the authority, 1955 went to Cairo, served as counsellor of the people's embassy in Egypt and Syria, and later transferred to Pakistani consul general, and was received by Premier Zhou many times. After returning to China from 65438 to 0968, he served as the director of the first bureau of the Intelligence Bureau of the General Staff of the People's Liberation Army and the deputy minister of the Ministry of National Security. Now retired. 1984 1 22, I visited my alma mater and wrote "Return to my alma mater, the second rhyme of President Liu": "At the age of 50, I will be in Beijing and return to my alma mater. Tens of thousands of students in Qian Qian, for the country and the people * * * heart sound ".

In the summer of the 18th year of the Republic of China (1929), Zeng Zanpeng initiated and donated ten pieces of Yang Guang to build a pavilion on the earthen platform in front of the pavilion, which was completed in January and connected by an overpass. Become a leisure resort for teachers and students.

In September, we first discussed the expansion of the school building in Gezuo, but there was no money. Everyone said, "It is human nature to fill the sea and move mountains." What are you worried about? So everyone started working together and raised their own money. Zou, Xiao Weili, Zou, etc. Also raised funds from fellow travelers in Hubei Province. However, the quartet was difficult, the situation was unstable, and the harvest failed year after year. It took five years to succeed, and it cost more than 4,300 yuan. Zou's Wuchang Yaxin Geography Society pledged 500 silver dollars. The new house has six rooms on two floors, spacious and bright, and can accommodate 300 people. In addition to the school headquarters, there is also a 162 mu school yard. All funds, fields, shops and coins are engraved on the wall. The school has entered an extremely glorious period, and Yangxi has become a famous cultural hometown. Yang, Zou, Xiao Juemin, Liu Liren, Luo, Zou Shimin, Xiao Weili, Luo, Liu Liren and Zou Gaotan successively presided over the school. Mr. Liu, who served as the longest principal, served as the president of the town twice, all from his family.

In the 23rd year of the Republic of China (1934), Zou Gaotan took over as principal. Zou Gaotan, Yangxi Lengshui Lane 1893, Fuxiu, graduated from Hunan Higher Institute of Technology (predecessor of Hunan University). Mr. Zou is well-read and versatile, and writes well in Nanyuan. He has high attainments in calligraphy, art and music. In the early days of the Anti-Japanese War, the historical drama Mulan Joining the Army, which was directed and performed by herself, greatly stimulated the people's enthusiasm for the war of resistance and won wide acclaim from the public. Up to now, people still talk about it and admire it. Mr Zou takes education as his responsibility. Take education as a pleasure and school as a paradise. Teaching students according to their time, the call of "going to school today and going to war tomorrow" was issued during the Anti-Japanese War. Encourage students to go to the anti-Japanese front. Zou Xupu, former director of the Office of Forestry Department, Professor Tsinghua University, Professor Zou from National University of Defense Technology, Professor Zou Longqing, Professor Zou Jianbin, Professor Zou Gaoyi, Professor Zou Xindi, Professor Zeng, Professor Zeng Huizhi and Professor Zou Lu from Hunan Normal University. Everyone studied hard under their own doors, laid a solid foundation, and later became a pillar of the country with their own specialties.

Mr. Zou Gaotan served as the principal until his last breath. 194 1 year, his eldest son was killed by a Japanese plane in Chenxi Arsenal after graduating from college. Mr. Zou was heartbroken and angry and died on 1942.

After Zou Gaotan died, Mr. Luo took over as principal. Luo was born in 1890, a celebrity official, graduated from county middle school, and graduated from Hunan First Normal College. Teacher Luo teaches China literature, history, nature and health, and his handwriting is very good. He usually writes couplets for local people, signs, practices medicine, treats people, makes horoscopes, watches auspicious days and carves. Mr. Wang is honest and upright. He is always willing to ask him for mediation when there is any dispute in the village. I work hard in school, and I am deeply loved by teachers and students, and also respected by villagers.

Mr. Luo served as the principal in the middle and late period of War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression. The school organizes boy scouts to carry out strict military training. Wear yellow clothes, epaulettes, collar badges and hat badges, and wear a belt with benevolence, wisdom, righteousness and courage. Everyone has a bat as a weapon. There is a regimental headquarters, a colonel, a squadron and a squadron. According to the requirements of the army, people are sent to stand guard at the school gate and regimental headquarters every day for military training and camping training as far as Hengyang. Carry out anti-Japanese propaganda in the streets and villages, perform street dramas, and publicize anti-Japanese with oil paintings. Zou and others in the scouts later took part in War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, fought bravely and tenaciously on the battlefield in Dongkou, and fought bloody battles with the enemy for three days and nights, but their weapons were still in the line of fire.

A century-old prestigious school has risen in a difficult situation.
