In terms of defending the capital city, it was also called the "Three Military Gates" (삼군문) along with the Military Training Agency and the Royal Guard Command. Capital Garrison was created by integrating the Jeongchocheong (精抄廳) and Hullyeonbyeoldae (訓鍊別隊) in the early years of King Sukjong's reign. Its main responsibilities included the defense of Hanyang Fortress, the protection of palaces such as Changdeokgung (昌德宮) and Changgyeonggung (昌慶宮), and providing security during the king's processions.
