The Ming dynasty had fallen before the Qing dynasty took over China. The last Ming emperor and his immediate family died when Li Zicheng's rebel army seized Beijing and founded the short lived Shun dynasty.
Faced with this the Imperial army under Wu Sangui invited the Manchu into China and allied with them against Li Zicheng (according to tradition because Li had kidnapped his girlfriend). The combined army defeated the Shun at the battle of Shanhai Pass and the Qing were established as rulers of China. A few Ming princes in the south rebelled (the strongest claim was held by the Emperor's father's cousin), but they were suppressed by the Imperial Chinese army which would have had both Chinese and Manchurian troops.
The idea that the Manchu armies and the Imperial Chinese army were separate entities in the suppression of revolts is false, and if you think about it unlikely. Certainly within a generation the Manchus were effectively Chinese.
