He said that they would remain in position initially, but be brought under normal AI control once you make a move towards either of the fords. This is what happened when I accidentally revealed my light infantry unit that was hidden in the trees near the main ford:



The Americans chased after my light infantry all the way to the my starting position. They were then slaughtered by my prepared line infantry. Notice that there is a battle already underway at the other ford. Some four or five American units crossed that ford (and were utterly defeated) as well.
