雲貴總督沈秉堃以雲南防軍內有各屬之保衛團，系昔日之鄉團，名為營隊，實即鄉兵，未能遽改為巡防隊，乃仍其舊。 Governor-General Shen Bingkun of Yunnan-Guizhou noted that Yunnan's garrisons included guard companies in various districts—formerly village militia, called battalion units but really local militia—that could not be converted at once to patrol corps, so the old arrangement remained.
