Joab fought ... he captured

Here the author says "Joab" but he is referring to Joab and his soldiers who fought with him. Alternate translation: "Joab and his soldiers fought ... they captured" (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-synecdoche)

Rabbah

Fighting against this city literally means to fight against the people of Rabbah. Translate the name the same as you did in 2 Samuel 11:1. Alternate translation: "the people of Rabbah" (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metonymy)
