There is virtually nothing to say about this war, enemy forces are all but non-existent. The action involves little more than march, assault, rinse and repeat.

WTF?
The biggest problem here will be getting troops into action before the war times out after 36 months of inactivity

Peace with Ming – 23/01/1693
I now have borders with both parts of Chagatai, but troops aren’t in place to attack their ally Brunei. Concerns about multiple borders against Ming are no longer valid.
Elsewhere the Oirat Horde has reappeared in Hotan as an OPM revolter from Vijayanagar. They’ll be DOWed soon; right now I can run off my war exhaustion. Hotan is a COT, an obvious location.
