by casting over stones and arrows at them.

Alma 49:20

yea, a body of their strongest men, with their swords and their slings,

to smite down all who should attempt

to come into their place of security by the place of entrance;

Thus the Nephites had all power over their enemies;

and thus the Lamanites did attempt to destroy the Nephites

until their chief captains were all slain;

while, on the other hand,

there was not a single soul of the Nephites which was slain.
