The Zakhchin were conquered by Manchus in 1754 and controlled by Jasagtu Khan aimag's Tsevdenjav gün, then moved to Zereg and Shira Khulsan. One khoshuu with 4 sums were designated for them and noble Maamad zaisan became the chieftain.

Bichgiin meeren's sum (in modern Mankhan, Khovd province)
Güüj zan's sum (in modern Möst, Khovd province)
Baljinnyam zahiragch sum (in modern Zereg and parts of Mankhan in Khovd province)
Jantsandorj's sum or Hoit (North) sum (in modern Mankhan, Khovd province)
