Similar to other descriptions of warfare outside of the second half of the book of Alma, Mormon gives few details of this battle, which was nevertheless so terrible a slaughter “that never was known so great a slaughter among all the people of Lehi since he left Jerusalem.”
The Nephites are victorious, and when the Gadiantons are fleeing, Gidgiddoni gives them pursuit, eventually killing even their leader, Giddianhi. Many Gadiantons escape to their mountains, and while this battle has been decided in favor of the Nephites, the war had not yet been won.
