What would the order (in the language of the day) have been, something as simple as “archers” or “archers, release”? “Release arrows?”

“Archers make ready” meaning they place the arrow in the bow but do draw, and possibly aim, might make sense.

No clue how accurate it is but I have heard some films use something like. Archers, Loose. In place as in let the bow string loose.
