At the end of the third year of the reign, the direct influence of the Zhunger raid on the Jin State lasted until April of the fourth year of the reign, and the indirect influence may last for decades.

In the space of half a year, many major events took place, one of which was the westward migration of the defeated remnants of Jungar.

Because Haoge's cooperation was not very effective, the main force of the Jin army entered Qinghai, stabilized the situation in Qinghai, and intended to drive the Ming army out of Qinghai, and gave up the pursuit of the monks, so that the monks nearly 60,000 cavalry, through the Badain Jaran Desert on the Alxa Plateau, evaded the interception of Daishan, attacked several tribes that submitted to the Qing along the way, robbed some cattle and sheep and people, and caught up with the remnants of Jungger who moved west.

The elderly Batur Khan, after suffering a great defeat, died of illness on the way to the west, and the monks had the strongest army and inherited the throne of Dzungar.

At the end of March of the fourth year of the reign of the Ming Dynasty, the remnants of Jungar were on the banks of the Irtysh River, resting for half a month, and the monks continued to advance westward after inheriting the throne.

Near Tyumen, they broke through the barricades of hundreds of Cossacks and went to the banks of the Volga to join the Turghut, one of the four nomadic tribes of the Varat.

The Jungger Department, which dominates Moxi, can only live a life under the fence.

The Ming Dynasty in the south took advantage of the fact that the attention of the Jin and Qing dynasties was in the northwest, and carried out many actions.

In the west, the Ming army tried to enter Wusizang, but the people who commanded the envoy and the Xuanwei division of the Wusizang Xing Governor dissuaded them on the grounds that the Ming had never garrisoned troops in Wusizang, and the army controlled by several living Buddhas began to gather along the way to block the Ming army from entering Tibet.

The Ming Dynasty was not fully prepared, but it was just a temptation, and seeing that Wu Sizang reacted more violently, Chen Youlong led his troops to retreat.

After failing to enter Wusizang, Wang Deren entered the southern part of Qinghai, but it was very smooth.

The forces of the Jin State were all transferred to the north to deal with the Jungar Mongols, Qinghai was empty, and the Ming army took advantage of the weakness to enter, and soon took control of many tribes in the southeast of Qinghai.

Originally, the nomadic tribes in the southeast of Qinghai only had about 10,000 tents in total, but because of the southern expedition of Zungar, many tribes from the north moved south here, so that the Ming army controlled about 20,000 tents at once, and picked up a big bargain in vain.

When He Tengjiao got the news, he immediately wrote a letter, asking the court to reset the Duogandu Division, and reached out to the court to ask for money and materials.

The Ming army had very few cavalry, although it took advantage of the fact that the Jin State had no time to take care of Qinghai and occupied the southern part of Qinghai, but the Jin State could counterattack at any time, and if there was no city to rely on, it would be difficult for the Ming army to hold the vast area in the southeast of Qinghai.

After Wang Deren arrived, Li Dingguo, who had recovered from his injuries, led more than 30,000 people to enter Qinghai and rush to build the two cities of Gander and Dari to prevent the counterattack of the Jin army.

If these two cities are completed, then the Ming army can rely on the cities, with a small number of cavalry, to control the southern part of Qinghai, and use this as a foundation to advance northward, and then control the entire Qinghai and encircle the Jin State.

However, although the plan is good, it is not easy to implement, and building a city is not a simple matter, especially the road is difficult to travel, and it is inconvenient to transport materials.

In the court, Wang Yan naturally strongly supports this, which is related to the source of the Ming Dynasty's war horses, and can provide elite cavalry for the Ming Dynasty, it is worth spending a lot of money, but there are also opposing voices in the court, many people think that the consumption is too large, it is completely unnecessary, and even some ministers think that it is not necessary to go north at all, so it is good to fight between the north and the south.

Compared with the south, the north is relatively poor, and some people feel that the imperial court's northern expedition will increase the taxes in the south, and second, after the defeat, the north needs to recover, and it will inevitably require blood transfusion from the southern provinces, and even migrate the population to the north.

These southerners were reluctant to see it, and some of them settled the accounts and found that the Northern Expedition might as well be transferred to the South Seas and fight a few more places like Champong.

Wang Yan is very disgusted with this kind of idea of being short-sighted and only caring about immediate interests, if the north leaves two big countries, and now the Ming Dynasty is strong, it may be peaceful for a few years, and once there is a problem within the Ming Dynasty, the two northern countries will inevitably invade the south.

The side of the couch does not allow others to snore, but fortunately, the vast majority of people in the court have a relatively long-term vision, and the plan to build a city in Qinghai was approved by the imperial court.

Although the Jin State won the war against Zhunger, it lost the southeastern part of Qinghai and the herdsmen who submitted to the Jin.

Compared to the Jin State, the Qing also faced attacks from the Ming Dynasty, but the situation was much better.

In terms of the two Huai, the Ming Dynasty sent Dai Zhifan, the governor of the Chinese army, to Huai'an to sit in Huai'an, and the Ming army gathered 150,000 people and placed them on the front line of the Huai River.

Originally, the Ming Dynasty was only putting troops under pressure, but the governors of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies felt that there was a rare opportunity to try to attack Xuzhou and accumulate experience for the future Northern Expedition.

At the end of November last year, after getting the approval of the imperial court, several major governors of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies gathered in Huai'an to help Dai Zhifan make suggestions.

The Ming army dispatched 100,000 troops, divided into two routes, along both sides of the canal to Xuzhou, Huaibei and Shandong earthquakes, along the way all the prefectures and counties surrendered.

Ma Guanghui, the governor of Shandong in the Qing court, was so frightened that he hurriedly took back the 50,000 troops on the Huai River to Xuzhou City.

At the same time, Sun Shoufa on the Nanyang side also began to feint against Henan.

The successive defeats of the Manchu Qing Dynasty led to the rise of Han warlords, such as Jiang Xiang in Shanxi, Ma Guanghui in Xuzhou, and Kong Youde and Shang Kexi in Henan, all of whom were warlords who controlled a large number of soldiers and horses.

This time, the Manchu Qing Dynasty went west to conquer Zhunger, and the Han army belonging to Kong Youde was transferred to the red flag, which belonged to the Han army with a blue flag, which had a hint of taking the opportunity to consume the strength of the two.

After all, the two of them have 100,000 troops in Henan, one is four or five years, and they have not moved places, so the Manchurian nobles will naturally have some suspicions in their hearts.

The two most elite banners of the Qing army in Henan were transferred, and Kong Youde saw that the Ming army in Nanyang had any changes, and immediately reported it to Beijing.

Dolgon could only divide the remaining 30,000 cavalry into two, 10,000 to Henan and 20,000 to Xuzhou.

Dai Zhifan led 100,000 Ming troops, attacking along the canal, at first it was very smooth, all the way to the city of Xuzhou, the Ming army who originally wanted to try it, saw that it was so easy to hit Xuzhou, it was a pity not to fight, so he faked it and did it, and surrounded the attack.

For a time, the artillery fire under the city of Xuzhou was continuous, and the Ming army's firearms were sharp, only to make Xuzhou crumbling, but at this moment, 20,000 Qing cavalry bypassed Xuzhou and directly pounced on the Ming army's grain road, burning the Ming army's grain ship, and the Ming army, which originally occupied the initiative, immediately fell into passivity.

The Ming army relied on the canal to transport grain, but the distance was hundreds of miles, and the cavalry of the Qing army came and went like the wind, and there were many people, and the Ming army could not keep the grain route smooth.

The 100,000 Ming army attacking Xuzhou immediately became dangerous, Dai Zhifan could only retreat along the canal, Ma Guanghui in Xuzhou City immediately led the army to chase and kill, coupled with the cavalry raid, the 100,000 Ming army lost more than 10,000 people, only to be led by Zhang Mingzhen to lead the water division, Liu Tichun led 20,000 people, to take back to the south of the Huai River.

The operation of the Ming army in Huaibei ended in failure.

On the Korean side, Nikan led 10,000 Qing troops to defend Seoul, and the strength of the Korean army besieging the city was still lacking, and the siege of the city for two months did not defeat Seoul.

Soon after, there was information that the Qing army had ended the war in Moxi, and Xie Qian was worried that the Qing army would enter the court in a big way, so he withdrew the siege in advance.

It is a pity that Seoul was not captured, but the Ming army was not without gains, and the institutions and armies of the puppet Joseon in Wudao in the west were basically destroyed by the coalition forces.

Although the siege of Seoul was lifted, the influence of the Qing army in Korea was only around Seoul.

If the Manchus did not invest some resources in Korea to strengthen the Qing army stationed in Korea, the coalition forces wanted to drive the Qing army out of Korea, and it would be in the next two years.

The Ming Dynasty's action to contain the Manchus was not very successful, and it did not take advantage of the same as it did against the Jin State.

This made the Ming Dynasty begin to summarize the reasons for the failure of the containment operation, and many people immediately pointed out that the Ming Dynasty was too short of cavalry.
