Him then Drona, Kripa, Karna, the son of Drona together with Brihadbala, and Kritavarman, son of Hridika -- six chariot-warriors -- surrounded. Seeing the excessive burden placed upon the Sindhu king, your army, O great sovereign, rushed upon Yudhishthira. And the rest of the great chariot-warriors showered the warrior son of Subhadra with streams of arrows, drawing bows the size of a palm tree.

Against the youth -- six foremost warriors at once, while the whole army is thrown against Yudhishthira: the enemy's design splits the Pandavas' forces so they can nowhere converge. It is significant that six of the greatest are dispatched at once against a single child -- a disproportion that reveals both the youth's greatness and the lawlessness of his slayers. The verse teaches that the unrighteous, unable to prevail in fair contest, resorts to numbers and calculation -- six against one, diverting the main forces; that a warrior's greatness is seen by how many of the strongest are sent against him; and that the tradition, naming by name the six who surrounded the youth, forever records them as accomplices in the crime, for not one of them could overcome him alone.
