Seeing him thus fighting, skilled in the battle of illusion — Alambusa, lord of the rakshasas — the Pandavas grew wrathful. Greatly enraged, the foremost among them rushed at him from every side upon their chariots, led by Bhimasena, O king. Enclosing him in a ring with a row of chariots, O venerable one, they showered him with arrows from every side, as one showers an elephant with firebrands.

Where illusion cannot be overcome by illusion, the Pandavas step in with direct force — hemming the enemy in a ring. The image of firebrands upon an elephant shows a wild, elusive power being pressed by concerted assault. It is telling that against delusion is set formation and unity. The verse teaches that against a slippery evil, matching trickery is not what works, but the massed effort of the righteous: where deceit cannot answer deceit, direct and united pressure prevails, leaving no room to escape.
