Fragmentary order

Explanation:

There are three types of combat order; the warning order, operation order and fragmentary order. warning order is issued to prepare the unit of a mission or intending operation order, operation order contains the details and intent of the entire mission.

The fragmentary order on the other hand is issued to the unit when there is a need to adjust strategy to a changing situation. The fragmentary order does not in anyway change the mission objective. In the situation illustrated in the question above, the best type or order to issue is the fragmentary order.
