Instead, DeI treated me to a 8-minute long slog where I slowly ground down the trapped enemy troops. That should've been the end of it totally surrounded and outnumbered by superior troops in a night battle, with general dead and no other support - the main force should've crumpled utterly. With their infantry held in front and their skirmishers broken, I used my Veteran Legionaries reserves to roll up their flank - killing their general and completely surrounding them in a classic pincer move.
