Are we the baddies?

 

[Dosky]

Wait, they knew about the sword but nobody told him?

 

[Tds-PdV]

Makes sense that Ike whipped the pistols at the end when the general has thought he won, otherwise he would have dodged/deflected the projectiles.
Though where did he store the pistols? Does he have some spatial magic for that? Unless of course, they were underneath his cloak all along.

 

[pandatime]

Narrator told them so they could tell us before he figured it out. Can't have us missing something in a chapter almost without text.

 

[darthnite]

Since it's showing a mix of short/long ones, the short ones at least should be the ones used by cavalry earlier (one shot and thrown away)

This is the third manga chapter I've read this week where someone magical whips out Power Word: Gun and starts blasting.

They didn't know enemy had this sword and was not able to tell Ike about the sword power in the middle of the battle. At least it's how I see this

That’s a good catch. They had marksmen that retreated back as well, which explains the longer variants. Though this begs a different question, the ground is muddy and wet so the weapons on the ground (and the fuse) should be wet, and the pistols at least would have no ammo inside.

So Ike must have had his troops retrieve the weapons, prep, and reload them. Which, makes sense considering his approach of overly preparing for this engagement.

This kind of explains

Wait, they knew about the sword but nobody told him?

Because Ike knew he was going to fight the general anyway, regardless of how much he knew about the sword or what the sword was capable of, his options were then always: (a) beat the general in direct combat or (b) failing that, pretended that he lost, retrieved the weapons while the general thought Ike has lost, and peppered the general with bullets.
