He's right you know, the only way to do battle is with honor and sportsmanship. Taking advantage of terrain and circumstance to take potshots at the enemy is frowned upon and shames both the commander and his men, no matter how effective it is.
The proper way would have been to give the sleeping soldiers advance warning so that they may be prepared and meet you on an open field; and have enough time to line up their men and return a volley of fire, to your line of men and their volley of fire. That way the best man of skill and courage may win without violating the rules of war.

They can look down upon me as I stand and look up to them in their graves. I'm ok with it.
You forgot the drummer boys
This is why white people are going extinct
one could argue battling from a distance is cowardly. our own side has broken every rule of war they have made up.
