60,000 Qing troops rode into three routes, sweeping the pastures of Junggar along the Irtysh River and the Ulungu River at the southern foot of the Altai Mountains.

The Qing army rode in front, and the Mongol tribes that submitted to the ****** followed, dividing up the population and pastures of Zungar, while the Qing received millions of cattle, sheep and horses.

The pasture next to Lake Ulungu is the place where the horses of Baturhun are grazed, which is equivalent to the royal court of Moxi Mongolia.

Around Ulungu Lake, tens of thousands of tents are distributed, among which at the entrance of the Ulungu River flowing into Ulungu Lake, there is a big tent covering an area of three acres, like a huge white bag sitting on the grassland, which is the tent of Baturhui.

After Baturhun set out on the expedition, the affairs of the headquarters were handed over to his closest brother, Gulos Chushur Ubashi, to manage the affairs of the headquarters.

The Qing army rushed to Zungar, destroying the tribes that submitted to Zungar along the way, and the headquarters naturally received the news.

In the face of the Qing army's attack, and the elite of Jungar was exhausted, Ross Chuhur Ubashi knew that his headquarters could not resist, but fortunately, the nomads did not go to farming, and they could not be defeated, so they could migrate with cattle and sheep and war horses.

The grasslands are so vast, and it is not easy for the Qing army to find them.

In the camp, a few fast horses quickly rushed out to inform the Jungar tribe who were walking outside to move westward, temporarily avoid the edge of the Qing army, and wait for Batur Huntaiji to defeat the Jin State and lead the main force back to the division, and they returned from the migration to recapture the pasture.

Of course, in addition to informing the troops to move westward, Turos Chuhuer Ubashi and naturally also sent cavalry to report to Baturhui, informing the Manchus to raid Moxi and let the army come to the rescue as soon as possible.

At this time, there was chaos in the camp of the headquarters, the herdsmen were hurrying to dismantle the tents, dismantle the fences, drive the cattle and sheep, and prepare to retreat westward, the old people carried the children into the carts, the women were responsible for driving the carts, and the men stepped on the war horses to drive the cattle and sheep.

After settling his wives and sons, and arranging Baturhun's family, he rode into the camp on horseback, with more than a dozen guards following him, and he looked at the chaotic camp and looked at the cattle and sheep in the camp, and couldn't help frowning slightly.

"Let the herdsmen move faster, don't rub off, the Qing army may kill at any time!" Ross Chushur Ubashi waved his horsewhip and said to the guards.

When several guards behind him heard this, they immediately pumped their horses' buttocks and went to urge, but at this moment, a group of cavalry rushed into the camp in a hurry, and the cattle and sheep were scattered, and galloped directly in front of the body of Gulos Chuhur Ubashi, and then turned over and dismounted, smashed his fist to his chest with one hand, and said urgently: "Leader, the Qing army has been killed, and it is ten miles away." ”

Ross Chuhuer Ubashi and his face changed dramatically, the Qing army came so fast!

Dai Shan divided the soldiers and horses into three groups, just sweep in front, the defeated Jungar tribe, naturally there are Mongolian tribes that follow to accept, the Qing army does not need to clean the battlefield, the speed is naturally like a whirlwind.

At this time, he led the cavalry galloping out of the camp and looked at the moving side, and sure enough, he heard the sound of hooves rolling in, and there were at least tens of thousands of cavalry, and his face suddenly became frightened.

"Let's go!" As soon as he pulled the reins of his horse, he urged the men and horses to go quickly.

The hoofs rumbled in the east, and all the people in the headquarters felt the shaking of the earth, and the men, horses, cattle and sheep were frightened, and they hurried to the west.

The herdsmen and their families drove the cattle and sheep, and their actions were naturally unhappy.

Seeing this, Gulos Chuhuer Ubashi hurriedly ordered, "Give up some cattle and sheep, let the Qing army fight for them, and let people drive some cattle and sheep to the south." ”

He wanted to leave some cattle and sheep for the Qing army to loot and delay the time of the Qing army, and then create the illusion that the headquarters would converge with the troops at the northern foot of the Tianshan Mountains to the south, so that the Qing army did not know which direction to pursue and kill.

His idea was good, but at this time, several cavalrymen at the back of the team came galloping, and the centurion at the head waved his horsewhip and shouted urgently: "Leader, go quickly, it's too late!" ”

Hearing this, he looked behind him and found that behind the procession of migrants, there was suddenly a thick line, and the thick line instantly turned into a colorful carpet, and then quickly divided into three fast, and the carpets on the left and right sides quickly outflanked it.

When they saw this, they were all cold, they hesitated, they didn't even care about their families, and with a wave of their whips, they urged the horses to run.

Nearly 1,000 Jungar men followed, and the herdsmen were terrified and tried to escape, and the whole procession was immediately in chaos, men and women scurrying in a hurry, and children sitting in the carts and crying loudly.

The left and right flanks of the Qing army were outflanked, the cavalry galloped and threw at the same time, and the rain of arrows came in patches, and the herdsmen of Jungger were hit by arrows one after another, and some of the war horses fell, and the people rolled and fell to the ground, and were thrown out of the distance.

The two cavalry outflanked and instantly surrounded the herdsmen of the Jungar headquarters, and nearly a thousand herdsmen who wanted to escape were shot down by the surveillance, and the rest rushed out as a blockade, and fled in the direction of the escape.

The Qing cavalry wanted to pursue, but was stopped by Chang Adai, "Leave them alone, immediately sweep along the lake, and then turn south and go straight to the northern foot of the Tianshan Mountains." ”

The grassland is not as good as the Central Plains, the terrain is not so complicated, it is a horse and a flat river, it is not easy to catch up with the enemy on horseback, you ride a horse and he also rides a horse, it is possible to chase thousands of miles.

The task of the Qing army was to sweep away the tribes of Zungar, and even if these people fled, they would not be able to survive without women, children, cattle and sheep.

The tribes on the grassland were exterminated, and it was difficult to absolutely block the news, unlike the Central Plains, where several city gates were blocked and a card check was set up at the pass, which might be able to close the news, but in a wilderness, it was difficult to prevent the cavalry from escaping.

Right now, Chang Adai's task is to take advantage of the fact that the scattered tribes have not yet reacted, and quickly attack to prevent them from escaping.

Attacking the headquarters of Zungar, Chang Adai and another Qing army swept the Ulungu Lake on the left and right, while the other road turned sharply southward and took the lead in attacking the southern foot of the Tianshan Mountains, where there were still 60,000 tent troops who submitted to Zungar.

From the southern foot of the Altai Mountains to the vast area at the northern foot of the Tianshan Mountains, from time to time, you can see the picture of thousands of tents being trampled by war horses, and white tents being soft red with blood.

The heads, severed arms, and bloody limbs of the old herdsmen of Dzungar were scattered on the grassland, and the air was filled with a pungent smell of fish, and a few steppe wolves, looking for the smell of blood, wandered outside the dilapidated camp.

The area controlled by Zhunger is nearly 200,000 accounts, and such a vast area, the Qing army naturally cannot wipe it all out.

Deterred by the Qing army, some small tribes turned to submit to the Manchus, while others were forced to migrate westward.
