उपायैः पूर्ववधकथनम् / Strategic Justifications for Prior Eliminations
तथा युधिष्ठिरस्तूर्ण भीमसेनश्न पाण्डव: । पृथक्चमूशभ्यां संयत्तौ द्रोणमेवाभ्यधावताम्,इसी प्रकार राजा युधिष्ठिर और पाण्डुपुत्र भीमसेनने भी पृथक्-पृथक् सेनाओंके साथ तैयार हो शीघ्रतापूर्वक द्रोणाचार्यपर ही आक्रमण किया
tathā yudhiṣṭhiras tūrṇaṁ bhīmasenaś ca pāṇḍavaḥ | pṛthak camūbhyāṁ saṁyattau droṇam evābhyadhāvatām ||
قال سنجيا: وعلى النحو نفسه، فإنّ الملك يودهيشثيرا وبهيمسينا ابنَ باندو، وقد هيّأ كلٌّ منهما فرقته الخاصة، اندفعا مسرعين—موجّهين الهجوم تحديدًا نحو درونا.

Educational Q&A
Even in the chaos of war, action is framed as duty under leadership and accountability: the verse highlights decisive resolve directed toward a pivotal figure (Droṇa), implying that confronting the source of strategic harm is seen as necessary—yet it also foreshadows the ethical strain of battling a revered teacher.
Sañjaya reports that Yudhiṣṭhira and Bhīma, each with his own troop-division, quickly charge straight at Droṇa, focusing their attack on the Kaurava commander.
