Planes these days use fly by wire systems while older ones had a mix of hydraulics with electronic assistance like the MD-11 (And maybe 737-800?).
But what would happen if you lost the electronic systems and you had to fly manually? I remember an incident of this happening in a MD-11.
So How much raw muscle power is needed to fly an MD-11 or an 737-800 without assistance for 10 minutes and then land? Through two pilots or as a single person.

You can't. Most of these airplanes are flown with hydraulically powered control surfaces with no mechanical input possible from the cockpit flight controls. The flight controls just operate servo control valves in the hydraulic actuators, like the bucket on a front end loader but a little fancier. If it's FBW, the FBW system does the same thing at the actuators using torque motors operated by the FBW computers to drive the servo control valves.
There will be two, or three, hydraulic actuators driving each control surface. The flight controls in the cockpit just control the extension/retraction of the actuators. Control feel in these airplane comes from spring devices in the control circuit to simulate "air loads". There is no direct connection between the pilot and the dynamic forces acting on the control surface. If you lose all of the hydraulic actuators, you lose the control surface.

There is no feedback from aeroforces - if there is hydraulic pressure. If no hydraulic pressure, there is feedback through the servo valve deadband.

Technically yes but you won't be able to effectively control the surface with whatever leverage you are able to apply mechanically to the PCU piston when you bottom out the servo valve input lever.
