Alma 52:19

and in the commencement of the twenty and eighth year,

Moroni and Teancum and many of the chief captains held a council of war —

what they should do to cause the Lamanites to come out against them to battle;

or that they might by some means flatter them out of their strongholds,

that they might gain advantage over them and take again the city of Mulek.

Alma 53:5

And this city became an exceeding stronghold ever after;

and in this city they did guard the prisoners of the Lamanites;

yea, even within a wall which they had caused them to build with their own hands.

Now Moroni was compelled to cause the Lamanites to labor,

because it was easy to guard them while at their labor;

and he desired all his forces when he should make an attack upon the Lamanites.

Alma 53:7

And it came to pass that

he did no more attempt a battle with the Lamanites in that year,

but he did employ his men in preparing for war,

yea, and in making fortifications to guard against the Lamanites,

yea, and also delivering their women and their children from famine and affliction,

and providing food for their armies.
