Двое меня! И не разделяйте!
Day 13 of the war ------------------------------------------------
The failed attempts during the past 2 days to capture Yudishtira makes Duryodhana upset & demotivated . He vents his frustration on Drona wondering why Yudhishtira could not be taken captive .
He also wonders :читать дальше
Acharya, you are peerless in warfare. Nobody can be a match for you . How is it possible that we could not penetrate the Pandava army & capture Yudhishtira ? I am frustrated.
Drona , visibly upset , says :
When Arjuna is around , you cannot think of taking Yudhishtira . We will continue to use the same option, diverting his attention to a very far off place so that Yudhishtira becomes our easy target.
Besides, I will form an array that will be impenetrable by the Gods even.
After Drona had said these words, the Samsaptakas once more challenged Arjuna to battle and took him away to the southern side of the field.
Now Drona arranges the army in CIRCULAR ARRAY – that of a Lotus formation a very formidable array which only experts in the art of warfare can penetrate.
Lets have a look at how the warriors were positioned now on this array –
At the entrance – The Kaurava princes
Heading them – Lakshmana ( son of Duryodhana )
In the middle – Duryodhana
Surrounding Duryodhana – Karna / Dushashana / Kripacharya
At the head – Drona
Along with Drona – JAYATHRADHA – the king of Sindh together with Aswathama & other brothers of Duryodhana
Jayathradha was flanked by – Shakuni, Salya & Burisiravas
THE FORMIDABLE / IMPENETRABLE ARRAY WAS THUS ARRANGED.
Day 13 to continue-----------------------------------------
Day 13 of the war ---------------------------------------------------------
Seeing that INVINCIBLE ARRAY from a distance, the pandavas headed by Yudhishtra were really stunned by the formation & were clueless
Bhima now approaches that great array along with Satyaki , Chekitana , Virata, the entire other Panchalas , Nakula , Sahadeva , Drishtadyumna , Durupada & Abimanyu - with 1000s of soldiers . They were all casually checked by Drona & they were all pushed backwards. Drona’s prowess is wonderful here. All were virtually paralysed by the mighty offensive launched by Drona at this juncture.
Despite various attempts from various corners, the array could not be broken & like a surging wave, Drona forged ahead, step by step towards capturing his prey – Yudhishtira.
Out of panic, Yudishtira asks Abimanyu, the YOUNGEST AMONG THE LOT :
Dear child, act in such a way that Arjuna may not reprove us. We do not know how to break the circular array. We all know only 3 now are capable of breaking this foray – Krishna, Arjuna & you . Hence, take up Ur arms immediately , destroy this formation.
Now its Abimanyu’s turn :
Yes. Soon I shall penetrate into that firm, fierce and foremost of arrays formed by Drona. However, please be aware that I HAVE BEEN TAUGHT BY MY FATHER THE METHOD OF (PENETRATING AND) SMITING THIS KIND OF ARRAY. I SHALL NOT BE ABLE, HOWEVER, TO COME OUT IF ANY KIND OF DANGER OVERTAKES ME.
Its Yudhishtira again :
Break this array once and make a passage for us. All of us will follow U immediately in the track by which will enter.You will be protected by all of us.
Now Bhima steps in :
I myself will follow U and Dhrishtadyumna , Satyaki, the Panchalas- we all will quickly follow U. We need U to just break the formation. Upon entering, we will smash & slay all of them.
Abhimanyu finally said :
Today, I will do that which will please my maternal uncle as also my mother.
Now, blessed by all seniors, Abimanyu asks his charioteer to move forward towards the array.
Now even that elderly charioteer advises Abimanyu to be very careful as he is going to face the Guru of all . Abimanyu, once again cheerfully neglects the caution thrown by his charioteer & asks him to proceed speedily.
And as he was coming at a distance, the Kauravas shouted –
Abimanyu is coming !
And the other Pandavas also followed Abimanyu closely from behind
DAY 13 CONTINUES--------------------------------------
Day 13 continues ------------------------
Abimanyu charged in with flurry of arrows & disturbed the formation ( in the manner taught by his Father ) .
Now right in the very sight of Drona, the magnificent formation was breached skillfully by Abimanyu & now he enters inside the foray.
Abhimanyu was seen coursing on all sides. With his keen-edged weapons, he cut into pieces , all those who come infront .
In the process, Abimanyu goes DEEP INTO THE KAURAVA FORMATION.
Duryodhana, on seeing him, filled with rage, rushed towards Abimanyu. Drona quickly asked Karna & others to protect him. Abimanyu now, checks the entire support group of Duryodhana & tames them. Dushashana pierces Abimanyu now. Drona also joins the party now firing shafts.
Karna attacks him but Abimanyu’s one shaft pierces with such a force that Karna was forced to sit back with great pain. Quickly recovering from the shock, karma fires multiple shafts on Abimanyu.
Salya tries to attack him but the ferocity of one shaft makes him speechless as he sits down on the terrace of his chariot, fainting.
Salya also loses his brother in the process who tries to save him.
Now it’s the turn of Ashwathama who after a brief battle was forced to retreat.
Seeing his son himself suffering by the skilled Abimanyu, Drona openly admires :
I do not regard any bowman to be his equal in battle. If only he entertains the wish, he can slay this vast host. It seems, that for some reason or other, he does not enter tain that wish
An upset Duryodhana on hearing the comments of Drona screams :
Mercy by Drona, this boy still survives. It seems our Commander doesn’t want to slay him & looks very partial. If he had desired as such, how long will it take for Acharya to extinguish this Abimanyu ?? Let us crush him now.
A furious Dushashan now charges violently & both exchange fireworks in brief. Ultimately a swoon Dushashan was saved by his swift charioteer.
The other Pandavas in the meanwhile tried to follow Abimanyu.
Karna now stages a monumental assault on Abimanyu , showered with arrows & pierced the vitals of Abimanyu & caused great pain to him. Karna displaced many of his best weapons & pained Abimanyu . Abimanyu in return, breaks Karna’s bow & his chariot .
HAVING THUS FOUGHT A HIGHLY SKILLFUL WAR , ABIMANYU MANAGES TO DEEPLY PENETRATE INTO THE KAURAVA FORAY.
