Alma 52:10

And Moroni also sent unto him, desiring him

that he would be faithful in maintaining that quarter of the land,

and that he would seek every opportunity

to scourge the Lamanites in that quarter, as much as was in his power,

that perhaps he might take again by stratagem or some other way

those cities which had been taken out of their hands;

and that he also would fortify and strengthen the cities round about,

which had not fallen into the hands of the Lamanites.

Alma 52:15

But behold, it came to pass

in the twenty and seventh year of the reign of the judges,

that Teancum, by the command of Moroni —

who had established armies to protect the south and the west borders of the land,

and had begun his march towards the land Bountiful,

that he might assist Teancum with his men

in retaking the cities which they had lost —

Alma 52:17

And it came to pass that Teancum made preparations

to make an attack upon the city of Mulek,

and march forth with his army against the Lamanites;

but he saw that it was impossible that he could overpower them

while they were in their fortifications;

therefore he abandoned his designs

and returned again to the city Bountiful,

to wait for the coming of Moroni,

that he might receive strength to his army.

Alma 52:21

And it came to pass that Moroni, h

aving no hopes of meeting them upon fair grounds,

therefore, he resolved upon a plan

that he might decoy the Lamanites out of their strongholds.
