That`s actually the best way to win. Just as Sun Tsu writes: a great general fights only battles he knows he will win.
I attack usually slowly, moving my main army before his centre and take him under fire with arbs or crossbows. Meanwhile, cav or other fast units move to the flanks. Then I pull back the arbs and charge my spear lines and heavy inf. When they have engaged with the whole enemy army, I smash their flanks with the cav.
But sometimes, when the enemy has mainly units that are weak in melee, I charge quickly with the spear line and assault weak spots of the enemy line with cav.
