If Russia's western ambitions are stomped or curbed and Russia began to significantly focus itself eastward instead might it conquer Dzungaria? In this scenario to the west Russia would be faced with far stronger opposition from Sweden, Poland, and the Ottomans. Meanwhile in the east missions like the 1717 Khiva Expedition would meet more success then OTL, slowly drawing Russia's attention eastward. And then after decades of being drawn eastward could Russia potentially conquer Dzungaria in the 1740s or 1750s.
