Eight-Nation Alliance and Boxer Movement Pictures.
Is that really the case? Undeniably, this movement has put pressure on the great powers to some extent! Otherwise, it is impossible for the Boxer Rebellion to be annihilated under the joint efforts of China and foreign countries!

The so-called invulnerable boxer
After the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895, the Qing government can be said to be at the mercy of others, because the Qing government was weak and incompetent, which plunged the general public into a boiling hell! At this time, an organization composed of people who practiced martial arts and boxing in Shandong developed into the present Boxer Rebellion!
The boxer performed martial arts to the Qing government.
This organization was originally established to overthrow the Qing Dynasty and revive the Ming Dynasty, but it faced national disaster? Anti-clearing and regaining sight? Suddenly became? Help clean up the ocean? ! This is amazing, they? Destroy the ocean? That's ten? Big? ! It was then that the fatuous Qing government saw that the Boxer Rebellion had such boldness and listened to the rumor that the Boxer Rebellion could kill all foreigners! So Empress Dowager Cixi declared war on Eight-Nation Alliance on May 25th, 990. Of course, a large part of the reason is that she was provoked by the powers!
But in any case, the government dared to declare war on the powers, obviously because of the clamor of the Boxer Rebellion! To the surprise of the Qing government, the Boxer Rebellion did not play any role in this war, but brought itself a huge crisis! And the Boxer Rebellion can't show the so-called invulnerability to the artillery of the great powers at all!
The suppressed boxer movement
Boxer? Help out? Let's not talk about it. Let's talk about boxers. Destroy the ocean? As mentioned above, the boxer movement is very destructive, isn't it? Big? ! How big is that?

Once a family had a box of matches made by foreigners, which was known by the Boxer Rebellion, and the whole family was silent. It is no exaggeration to say that this is all true! Boxer? Destroy the ocean? A * * * killed tens of thousands of people! Most of them are from China (including more than a dozen children), and there are only a few hundred real foreign talents! Even some good Christians from the west were killed by the Boxer Rebellion in order to save orphans from the quagmire. Of course, these children will not be spared!
