After that who blew the conchs, Sanjaya?

O King, the king of Kasi, the excellent archer; Sikhandi, the great chariot warrior; Dhrstadyumna; Virata, invincible Satyaki; king Drupada; the five sons of Draupadi and the mighty-armed Abhimanyu, son of Subhadra—all these great chariot warriors blew their conchs. (17-18)

What was the result of the sound of these conchs?

That terrible sound, echoing through the sky and the earth rent the hearts of the Kauravas, who had usurped the kingdom by foul means.(19)

What did the Pandavas do after the conchs were blown from both the sides?

O King! After the conchs were blown, at the time of the beginning of the war seeing your relatives

(Kauravas) arrayed against him, Arjuna whose ensign badge is Hanuman, took up his bow and spoke the following words to immanent Lord Kl a—"O Acyuta (Acyuta—He who does not deviate from his divine nature) (Krsna) place my chariot between the two armies."(20-21)

Why, Arjuna?

I want to behold these warriors drawn for battle with whom I have to engage myself in this fight and who are the well-wishers of Duryodhana.(22-23)
