    The combined forces of the eight countries began with about 30,000 men, and about 50,000 to 70,000 people before and after, and were well-equipped and powerful. Among them, Japan has the largest number, with 8,000 people; U.S. Army 2100; French Army 800; Russian troops 4,800 people; British Army 3000; Austria-Hungary 58; Italy 53; Germany 7000 (at sea, too late to land). The real combat strength is only 18,811 people.

    In terms of the number of troops, the Qing army was 1560,000 and the Boxers were 300,000 or 400,000. But within 10 days, the Eight-Nation Coalition captured Beijing!

    Later, the Eight-Nation Coalition increased to tens of thousands, and after the occupation of Beijing, they re-transferred troops from attacking Zhangjiakou, Tongzhou, and Baoding, and actually captured Beijing with only about 10,000 people.

    The time of the invasion of China by the Eight-Nation Alliance.

    In 1894, the Qing Dynasty was defeated in the Sino-Japanese First Sino-Japanese Naval War, leaving the Western powers eyeing China, a long-coveted land of abundance. In the spring of 1900, the outbreak of the Boxer Rebellion became the fuse of the Eight-Nation Alliance's war of aggression against China.

    On May 28, 1900 (the 26th year of Guangxu), the Eight-Nation Coalition invaded China, and eight major countries, led by the then United States of America, the German Empire, the British Empire, the Japanese Empire, the French Third Republic, the Kingdom of Italy, Austria-Hungary, and the Russian Empire, launched China's armed aggression.

    On August 14, 1900, the city of Beijing completely fell, Cixi took Guangxu and others all the way west to flee to Xi'an, and then Cixi issued an "edict of guilt" in the name of Guangxu, and telegraphed Li Hongzhang to negotiate peace with foreigners from the north. On September 7, 1901, as a result of the signing of the Treaty of Xincho, China was completely reduced to a semi-colonial and semi-feudal society, which brought heavy disasters to the country and people at that time.

    Hello, in history, the purpose of launching the Eight-Nation Alliance's war of aggression against China, I think, is: the direct purpose is to assist the Qing Dynasty in suppressing the Boxer Rebellion, and the fundamental purpose is to safeguard and expand the rights and interests of the great powers in China.

    I think the main reason is that to further expand their interests in China and expand their markets in China, the Western colonizers will not start a war for some illusory reason, unless it is profitable.

    The immediate cause was the anti-imperialist struggle of the Boxers, which caused imperialist panic and needed to be suppressed by sending troops. The fundamental reason is that all countries saw the weakness of the Qing Dynasty and tried to carve up China and expand their interests in China.

    Because China is very weak, at that time, of course, he could go to Tsinghua for any reason, because of the Boxer Rebellion, and then violated the interests of foreign powers, so the Eight-Nation Alliance joined forces with Tsinghua.

    Mainly because of the Boxer Rebellion at that time, which put forward the slogan of supporting the Qing and destroying the foreigners, and threatened the interests of the great powers from its actions. Therefore, in order to suppress the Boxers and safeguard the interests of the great powers in China, they launched the Eight-Nation Coalition War of Aggression against China.

    China is an excellent colony for the rise of a strong capitalist empire due to its geographical location, abundant resources, and strong capital, but ancient China was too large for the great powers to divide and eat.

    It was the Empress Dowager Cixi who declared war on 11 countries at the same time. Moreover, because China has a large land and resources, and the Qing army is very weak, the Eight-Nation Coalition Army dared to attack the Qing Dynasty with a small number of troops.

The Eight-Nation Allied Forces refer to the eight-nation coalition forces that invaded China by military operations in 1900 (the year of Gengzi), including Britain, France, Germany, Russia, the United States, Japan, Italy, and Austria. Led by the British admiral Seymour, the total number was about 30,000 at first, but later increased. This event ended with China's defeat, the occupation of the capital Beijing by the coalition forces, the flight of the Qing court to Xi'an, Shaanxi, and the payment of huge indemnities by China after the peace talks.

If she didn't run, she would have to kill Guangxu when the city was broken, or she would be killed by the Eight-Nation Alliance, and Guangxu would be proclaimed emperor. After that, Beijing will be permanently stationed until today, and the outcome of World War II will be different. As a direct result, today's world pattern has become the largest in Europe, and the United States is still fighting in North America and Mexico, and behind Mexico is the United Kingdom.
