Karṇa-parva Adhyāya 58 — Arjuna’s Arrow-Storm and Relief of Bhīmasena
एतस्मिन्नन्तरे वीर: सहदेवो जनाधिप । अपोवाह रथेनाजोौ पार्षत॑ शत्रुतापनम्,नरेश्वर! इसी बीचमें वीर सहदेव शत्रुओंको संताप देनेवाले धृष्टद्युम्नको अपने रथके द्वारा रणभूमिमें अन्यत्र हटा ले गये
etasminn antare vīraḥ sahadevo janādhipa | apovāha rathenājau pārṣataṃ śatrutāpanam ||
Wika ni Sañjaya: O Hari, sa sandaling iyon, ang magiting na Sahadeva ay inalis sa pamamagitan ng kanyang karwahe ang bayani ng Pārṣata na si Dhṛṣṭadyumna, ang nagpapahirap sa mga kaaway, at inilipat siya sa ibang dako ng larangan.

Educational Q&A
Even in righteous warfare, discernment and protection of crucial allies are part of dharma: courage is not mere persistence in danger, but also timely withdrawal and repositioning to prevent avoidable ruin and to sustain the larger cause.
During the ongoing clash, Sahadeva uses his chariot to move Dhrishtadyumna (the Pārṣata commander) away to another spot on the battlefield, implying a tactical extraction or redeployment amid intense fighting.
