If an enemy unit is adjacent, must my unit attack it instead of a farther target?

The rulebook text covers this, and players on BGG read it the same way.

Yes. A unit next to an enemy that chooses to battle must close assault that adjacent unit; it cannot fire at a more distant target, whatever its type, and artillery is no exception. It may still choose not to battle, or move away first, since there is no zone of control. If several enemies are adjacent it chooses among them.
