Bhishma continues not merely to praise Duryodhana's allies but to classify their fighting worth and personal motives. What matters in this roll-call are old grievances: Nila remembers Sahadeva, the Trigartas remember Arjuna, and each warrior carries into battle his own bond with the past. War thus reveals itself as the fruit of accumulated debts, rivalries, and kshatriya vows, not as a sudden burst of anger.
