Airborne Assault

Thanks for the explanation of the probe attack, I am currently trying to find out how to establish a "move to contact" mission to a force of any size.
What I want to do is move to a possible FUP for an attack with a single detached unit as a front scout (aggressiveness low, casualty acceptance low) which stops its movement once (serious) contact is made so that the main body can evade or flank the spotted enemy.
The problem is: how do I cancel orders of both the main body and scout element to react to the revealed enemy?

How do you generally manage your forces? Let's say you have a regiment sized force to your disposal and have to seize and hold 3 objectives. Do you order the regiment HQ to attack the 3 objectives sequentially or do you send out a company or bataillon out for recon first?

It is really hard to find out in which level one should micromanage the forces.
