with Ulūka’s fall
अचोदयद्धयान् राजन् दुर्योधनबल प्रति | राजन्! यशस्वी पाण्डुपुत्र अर्जुके ऐसा कहनेपर दशार्हकुलनन्दन श्रीकृष्णने दुर्योधनकी सेनाकी ओर घोड़े बढ़ा दिये

三阇耶说道：大王啊，他催马向前，直指难敌之军。于是，依阿周那——般度那位声名显赫之子——之言，克里希纳，这位达沙尔诃族的光耀后裔，驾车冲向俱卢军阵，在战火之中坚守其责。

Educational Q&A
Even amid violent conflict, action is framed as disciplined duty: the charioteer’s controlled advance symbolizes steadiness, obedience to rightful command, and purposeful engagement rather than impulsive aggression.
Sañjaya reports to Dhṛtarāṣṭra that the chariot is driven forward; at Arjuna’s prompting, Kṛṣṇa urges the horses toward Duryodhana’s forces, moving the protagonists into direct confrontation.
