And now, Teancum saw that the Lamanites were determined

to maintain those cities which they had taken,

and those parts of the land which they had obtained possession of;

and also seeing the enormity of their number,

Teancum thought it was not expedient

that he should attempt to attack them in their forts.

Alma 53:8

And now it came to pass that the armies of the Lamanites, on the west sea, south,

while in the absence of Moroni

on account of some intrigue amongst the Nephites,

which caused dissensions amongst them,

had gained some ground over the Nephites,

yea, insomuch that they had obtained possession

of a number of their cities in that part of the land.
