Hungarian mounted crossbowmen

[Druzhina]

In the frescoes in the Póniky (Pónik) Roman Catholic Church, Slovakia (upper Hungary), c.1478 are two horsemen in the Saint Ladislaus legend that appear to have crossbows. Are they mounted crossbowmen? Are there other representations of Hungarian mounted crossbowmen?
