Alma 58:23

And it came to pass that Gid and Teomner, by this means, had obtained possession of their strong holds. And it came to pass that we took our course, after having travelled much in the wilderness, towards the land of Zarahemla.

So Gid and Teomner took over their forts. Then we traveled far in the wild lands toward the land of Zarahemla.

That’s how Gid and Teomner seized their stronghold. Meanwhile, after traveling deep into the wilderness, we changed course and headed toward Zarahemla.
