This is referred to as the "benny hill" code (slapstick british comedy often featuring the man himself engaging in speeded up motion chase sequences). After alot of skirmishing and constant retreating the unit will start taking a morale penalty which gets steadily worse until they rout. You can reset it by simply ordering them to attack then call it off a split second later and continue as before.
