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.
