Alma 56:30

Now when we saw that the Lamanites began to grow uneasy on this wise,

we were desirous to bring a stratagem into effect upon them;

therefore Antipus ordered that I should march forth

with my little sons to a neighboring city,

as if we were carrying provisions to a neighboring city.

Alma 58:6

And the Lamanites were sallying forth against us from time to time,

resolving by stratagem to destroy us;

nevertheless we could not come to battle with them,

because of their retreats and their strongholds.

Alma 58:28

And thus it came to pass, that by this stratagem

we did take possession of the city of Manti without the shedding of blood.
