Soon the atrocities escalated into random killings and swept the country. More than 2,000 Catholic clergy and believers were killed in Shanxi alone, and they were killed in front of the gate of Shanxi Governor's yamen.
The Qing government did not stop these atrocities in time, but got the permission of Empress Dowager Cixi in June and the Boxer entered Beijing.
After the boxer entered Beijing, it was very powerful. Before the Qing army attacked Tianjin, it burned the embassies of Belgium, the Netherlands and Spain. There are no embassies, only eight countries are left: Japan, Russia, Britain, the United States, France, Germany, Austria and Italy. Soon, eight countries formed a joint force.
That is, what we call "Eight-Nation Alliance" goes to war with China.
According to historical records,1August 4, 900. The G8 always sends 20,000 troops. In ...
8,000 people in Japan
4,800 people in Russia
There are 3000 people in Britain.
2 100 Americans
France is 800.
Germany 200 people
Austria-Hungary 58 people
Italy 53 people
In fact, the eight-nation alliance in history is not an alliance of eight countries and nine countries. There are 400 British soldiers from China, and their team is called Hua Yong Camp.
It is these brave China people who are good at fighting. After the war, the British government erected a monument to the dead China soldiers in Weihai. Bilingual in Chinese and English, cloud head and dragon pattern.
The monument erected by the British government for China people who died in Huayong Camp is exactly the same as the memorial arch built by German minister Cleander who was killed by the Boxer Rebellion.
The memorial archway of Cleander was built by the Manchu government at the request of foreign countries in the "Xin Chou Treaty".
No, it's not a disgrace to China.
The boxer movement is not invulnerable, or it is not invulnerable at all. Under the fire of Eight-Nation Alliance, the Boxer Rebellion soon failed, and Cixi fled to xi 'an with the emperor. The war ended with the Empress Dowager Cixi signing the Letter of Self-accusation and the Xin Chou Treaty to compensate others for their silver.
The definition of the Boxer Rebellion in our textbooks is a non-governmental organization in the late Qing Dynasty.
About whether the Boxer Rebellion was spontaneous by the people or encouraged by the government. We don't analyze their reasons, that's a matter for historians. But at that time, the slogan of the Boxer Rebellion was "Help the Qing Dynasty to destroy the foreign countries".
It is also an indisputable fact that the Boxer received the support of the Qing government at that time.
The boxer's powerful and simple so-called "patriotism" has developed into a populist violent movement, similar to the German Nazis during World War II!
Reject all foreign advances, remove electric lights and destroy railways. The Boxer Rebellion is one of the important factors that triggered Eight-Nation Alliance's invasion of China.
Eight-Nation Alliance, let's call it Eight-Nation Alliance according to the textbook.
*** 1 1 Countries that can sign treaties include Spain, the Netherlands and Belgium.
At the beginning of 1899, Yu xian was appointed as the governor of Shandong province. The governor who pays for the Xiaguan.
It was in Shandong that things went wrong. 1900 (gengzi year), transferred to Shanxi governor.
A fatuous and incompetent leader like Yu Xian. Shandong was in chaos, so he went to Shanxi to be a foreign official.
When I came to Shaanxi, I first played the tune that the Qing court opposed the construction of Zheng Tai Railway.
It is what people often say; Your incompetence is not terrible, but incompetence or leadership.
It is conceivable that what would happen if the country used such people?
According to the statistics of the church after the Gengzi Incident, there were 24 foreigners (including 53 Catholic missionaries, 88 Protestant missionaries and their children, including 53 children).
/kloc-During the Boxer Rebellion in the summer of 0/900, more than 20,000 Christians (65,438 Catholics+08,000 Protestants, 5,000) in China were massacred.
In our education, the Boxer Rebellion represents justice and resists foreign aggression. In fact, it is a complete disaster for the country and the people. Supported by the Qing government, they killed innocent people indiscriminately, causing great harm to society and great losses to the country, which led to Eight-Nation Alliance's invasion and was finally eliminated by the Qing government and foreigners. The ending is not sad!
It is puzzling that the education we received from childhood was that the reactionary and corrupt Qing government bought the country, but the boxer gave us just actions against imperialism and feudalism!
The sixteenth day of the first month of the Gengzi year.
