About this listen
Narrated by Kumar Varun.On the third day of battle, Bhishma led the Kaurava army in a strong formation, while the Pandavas countered strategically. The fighting was intense, with significant engagements between key warriors. Bhima wounded Duryodhana, causing temporary chaos among the Kauravas. Duryodhana accused Bhishma of not fighting wholeheartedly. Provoked, Bhishma launched a fierce attack, overwhelming the Pandavas. Seeing this, Krishna attempted to intervene directly but was stopped by Arjuna, who then fought Bhishma with full vigor. By day's end, Arjuna's prowess turned the tide, and the Kauravas retreated, acknowledging his superiority.Source, Bibliography and Suggested further reading:1. Vyasa, Maharishi. The Mahabharata.
