It's a bit weird that the two divisions both have "军", as usually that would indicate an equal/parallel relationship. In other words, the two groups shouldn't have a hierarchical relationship based on the naming convention.
The other thing is that while 云骑军 is easy to explain the name origin (metaphor for space/sky travel), 青丘军 is harder to figure out the origin as it sounds like the unit originated on a land-based military. Is it possible this is an old name inherited from before Foxians joined the Xianzhou Alliance? But if I recall correctly, the Foxians were an enslaved caste, so it's unlikely they'd have their own army/military system. Either way, it's intriguing...
Or miHoyo is pulling words out of their ass based on cool vibes and these names are meaningless.
