Unrestrained Battle Description and Śakuni’s Rear Assault
अशीत्या भीमसेनश्व शरै राजानमार्पयन् | फिर सात्यकिने भी झुकी हुई गाँठवाले एक बाणसे राजाको घायल कर दिया। तदनन्तर द्रौपदीके पुत्रोंने राजा दुर्योधनको तिहत्तर, धर्मराजने पाँच और भीमसेनने अस्सी बाण मारे

三阇耶说道：“毗摩塞那以八十支箭射击国王，在战阵中央紧逼不舍。随后，德劳帕蒂之子以七十三箭射向都利约陀那王；达摩罗阇以五箭；而毗摩塞那又以八十箭加之。”

Educational Q&A
The verse highlights the intensity of kṣatriya warfare: skill and determination manifest as overwhelming force. Ethically, it points to the tension between duty in battle and the tragic escalation of violence that characterizes the Kurukṣetra conflict.
Sañjaya reports that Bhīma showers the king with eighty arrows, severely assailing him. In the immediate context of the chapter’s battle description, this contributes to the cumulative pressure on Duryodhana by multiple Pāṇḍava fighters.
