## Chapter Fifty-One
595. Yudhishthira was fighting with Shalya, Bhima with Dushasana, Sahadeva with Shakuni, and Uluka with Nakula. ||30||
Then Duryodhana and Arjuna, skilled in wielding arrows, engaged in a fierce battle that terrified even the ghosts. ||31||
The Pandavas killed many sons of Dhritarashtra in the battle, and others like Duryodhana were rendered lifeless while still alive. ||32||
Karna, with his bow drawn to his ear, pierced many warriors of Krishna's side in the battle. ||33||
A fierce battle ensued between the two commanders, causing the destruction of many beings. ||34||
The valiant Hiranyabahu, with seven hundred and ninety arrows, wounded the Yadava commander Anaavrushti twenty-seven times. ||35||
Skilled in retaliation, Anaavrushti, in turn, wounded Hiranyabahu a hundred times with a thousand arrows. ||36||
Rudhira's son, Hiranyabahu, severed Anaavrushti's lofty flag, and Anaavrushti quickly pierced his bow, umbrella, and charioteer. ||37||
Taking up another bow, Hiranyabahu rained arrows, and Anaavrushti, throwing a mace, brought down his enemy's chariot. ||38||
Hiranyabahu, with sword and shield in hand, approached, and Anaavrushti, also with sword and shield, descended from his chariot and faced him. ||39||
Then, both commanders, skilled in parrying and delivering blows, engaged in a fierce sword fight. ||40||
Finally, Hiranyabahu struck Anaavrushti's arms with his deadly sword, severing both his arms, splitting his chest, and causing him to fall lifeless to the earth. ||41||
With the death of their commander, the four-armed army quickly fled and sought refuge with Jarasandha in the battle. ||42||
Then, Anaavrushti, praised by his soldiers, mounted his chariot and, pleased, went to Balarama and Krishna. ||43||
Balarama and Krishna, with their flags bearing the images of a bull, an elephant, and a monkey, were the breakers of the Chakravyuha, and they were mighty warriors. ||44||
