Howard,
What Ron said...
It's a very effective tactic to keep a larger force second guessing as to when and where a major attack will take place. It also serves to keep them confused and on edge. Continual stress and fatigue can wear down a fighting force very quickly, and destroy moral.
The Navy SEALs did this with good effect in Vietnam. Sometimes causing the NVA and VC to fire on their own positions.
