अयनेषु च सर्वेषु यथाभागमवस्थिताः। भीष्ममेवाभिरक्षन्तु भवन्तः सर्व एव हि॥
ayaneshu cha sarveshu yathabhagam avasthitah bhishmam evabhirakshanu bhavantah sarva eva hi
Translation
Therefore, stationed in your respective positions in every division of the army, all of you must protect Bhishma at all costs.
Commentary
Duryodhana's command to protect Bhishma reveals his strategic thinking - he knows Bhishma is the backbone of his army. Ironically, this also reveals his dependence on others for victory.
