भीष्मवधाय प्रयाणम् — The Advance toward Bhīṣma and Counter-Engagements
संजय कहते हैं--महाराज! तदनन्तर (मोहनास्त्र-जनित) मोहसे जगनेपर राजा दुर्योधनने युद्धभूमिसे पीछे न हटनेवाले भीमसेनको पुनः बाणोंकी वर्षासे रोक दिया ।।
sañjaya uvāca | ekībhūtās tataś caiva tava putrā mahārathāḥ | sametya samare bhīmaṁ yodhayāmāsur udyatāḥ ||
桑阇耶说道：大王！随后，你的诸子——皆为大车战的豪杰——在战场上会合，心志同一，决意已定，遂与毗摩展开激战。

Educational Q&A
The verse highlights how unity and determination, though powerful virtues in themselves, become ethically fraught when harnessed for adharma-driven aggression. It invites reflection on intention (bhāva) behind action: collective strength can protect dharma or amplify destructive pride.
Sañjaya reports to Dhṛtarāṣṭra that the Kaurava princes, acting together as elite chariot-warriors, assemble on the battlefield and jointly engage Bhīma in combat, indicating a coordinated attempt to check or overwhelm him.
