Nanjing was on the way and the division spent three days putting itself and its gear in order before entering the city. Although they arrived in Nanjing wearing woven grass hats and grass sandals, city residents saw a unit marching proudly in spite of its very basic equipment.
進南京城前，這支隊伍整整花了 3 天整補，也就是修理門面，所以雖是戴斗笠、穿草鞋，南京市民看到的基本上是一支裝備輕簡、步伐矯健的隊伍。
