"Even though I didn't bring many guards, I did bring with me a large number of new heavy crossbows!" Harribell continued after a pause. "After testing, we established that they are capable of piercing through the heavy black armor of Banto soldiers from a distance of up to thirty steps!"
Seeing that Yang Ling had finally decided to attack personally, Harribell thought it was time to reveal her trump card. The black armor of the Banto Empire's infantry was heavy and hardy, and its performance on the battlefield was exceptional. Originally, cavalry units were the best way to deal with Steve's Black Armor Guards, but when it came to small-scale surprise attacks, the exquisitely crafted heavy crossbows would be more suitable.
