And Kritavarman, the son of Hridika, greatly enraged, showered Shaineya with sharp arrows; then Satyaki grew angry. Then Shaineya sent forth in battle a keenly honed broad-headed arrow [against] Kritavarman, and four other arrows. They struck down his horses, cut his bow with the broad-headed arrow, and pierced the rear-guard and the charioteer with sharp arrows.

Satyaki strikes with calculation — at the horses, the bow, the charioteer — stripping the enemy of his supports: the wisdom of valor takes apart strength piece by piece. It is telling that even in anger his blow is precise. The verse teaches that valor guided by reason is not spent in vain: inflamed yet clear-sighted, the warrior aims where he takes from the enemy the very possibility of fighting, and so conquers not by fury but by precision.
