There a tactics involving deception and psy-ops that Lee used and developed.

I don’t know which battle but Lee marched the same regiment in front of the enemy along a small portion of road exposed to the enemy over and over in a loop. They were carrying different regimental flags so it looked like he was reinforcing his left flank. In fact he attacked on the other flank.
