तस्मिन्मया हते क्षिप्रमर्जुनं बहवो रथाः । तुल्यरूपा विशिष्टाश्च क्षेप्स्यन्ति भरतर्षभ॥५-५४-४१॥

Bhīṣma, Droṇa, Kṛpa, Drauṇi, Karṇa, and Bhūriśravā; as well as the lord of Prāgjyotiṣa, Śalya, and the Sindhu king Jayadratha—

एकैक एषां शक्तस्तु हन्तुं भारत पाण्डवान् । समस्तास्तु क्षणेनैतान्नेष्यन्ति यमसादनम्॥५-५४-४३॥
Each one of these is capable of slaying the Pāṇḍavas, O Bhārata. But taken together, they would in a moment send them to Yama’s domain.

By volleys of arrows—by Bhīṣma in hundreds and thousands, and likewise by Droṇa, Drauṇi, and Kṛpa—Pārtha will be sent to Yama’s domain, to death.
