Bhagavad Gita 1-19

saghOShO daartharaaShTraaNaaM hRudayaani vyadaarayat

nabhashcha pRuthiveeMchaiva tumulO vyanunaadayan ||19|

"The tumultuous sounds of the conches that filled the earth and the skies made the heart of Duryodhana quiver."

The unified response from the great warriors of the Pandava army filled the atmosphere which not only echoed in the skies and the earth but also in the heart of Duryodhana and his army. If the sounds of mere conches itself was so tumultuous then it is left to once imagination the dreadfulness of the war. One has to blow ones conch to show their readiness for the war. Even Arjuna blew his conch and the war was about to begin.
