Except in my case, the AI didn't run to the sound of the guns. At the end of the battle, it had possession of my deployment zone, but I didn't have anything back there. My entire force was in AI deployment zone.
Counter attackers should head off towards any flipped V-hexes eventually in order to retake them. Or, go for nearby located enemy. This results in AI units appearing up your rear, as has happened to me on woods maps with T34s appearing up the kilt of my assault group..

They will go deeper into your rear while those conditions are not met. Sometimes that will result in a force running over your artillery park.

However if the AI counter-attackers never saw anyone nearby (e.g. visibility is way low) it wont have something to attack, and if you only flipped over the V hexes right near the end of the battle then it may not have time to go back from its rear-area mission and attempt to retake them.
