Alma 56:23

For we knew in those cities they were not sufficiently strong to meet them;

therefore we were desirous, if they should pass by us,

to fall upon them in their rear,

and thus bring them up in the rear

at the same time they were met in the front.

We supposed that we could overpower them;

but behold, we were disappointed in this our desire.

Alma 57:31

And they cried unto us, saying —

Behold, the armies of the Lamanites are marching towards the city of Cumeni;

and behold, they will fall upon them,

yea, and will destroy our people.
