The school buses lined up like tanks on the battlefield. Obviously the school buses are not tanks and the school is not a battlefield. But in this occasion, the metaphor is used to describe the school as a battlefield, in that there are police forces keeping the angry people from attacking the black students, who are entering the buses to be taken home. (Buses being armored like tanks)

Answer and explanation:
Scarlet Pimpernel is a novel that was written by a british baroness called Emma Orczy in 1905. The major conflict in this novel is a marraige issue between Sir Percy Blakeney and his wife Lady Marguerite, as they don't count with a strong built relationship because they lack trust between them and also they are very stubborn persons. So, taking that into account, it's safe to say that it is an emotional type of conflict.
