Shloka 10
अदेशिको यथा सार्थ: सर्व: कृच्छं समृच्छति । अनायका तथा सेना सर्वान् दोषान् समरछति,जैसे कोई मार्गदर्शक न होनेपर यात्रियोंका सारा दल भारी संकटमें पड़ जाता है, उसी प्रकार सेनानायकके बिना सेनाको सब प्रकारकी कठिनाइयोंका सामना करना पड़ता है
adeśiko yathā sārthaḥ sarvaḥ kṛcchraṃ samṛcchati | anāyakā tathā senā sarvān doṣān samṛcchati ||
Duryodhana said: “Just as a caravan of travelers, lacking a guide, falls into every kind of peril, so too an army without a commander is driven into all manner of faults and hardships.”

Educational Q&A
Effective leadership and guidance are essential for collective welfare: without a competent guide/commander, even a capable group is exposed to danger, disorder, and avoidable failures.
Duryodhana is emphasizing the practical necessity of a clear commander in battle, using the analogy of a guide-less caravan to argue that an army without leadership inevitably meets crises and incurs faults.
