Ibrahim Pasha exploited an Ottoman battlefield formation error to rout their left wing

Evidence

Then the Egyptian artillery started firing continuous volleys from both left and right and with minute precision in aiming until the earth was shaking on all sides … When the fog lifted for a brief time, Ibrahim saw that during their advance the Ottomans had created a gap of 1,000 feet between their cavalry and infantry forces and effectively isolated the left wing [i.e. the cavalry] from the army at large. Ibrahim immediately seized the opportunity and decided to lead a force himself of his cavalry and Guardia Regiments. — Khaled Fahmy, All the Pasha_s Men_ Mehmed Ali, his…, 901
