There are many other courageous heroes on
our side who are capable of attacking with various weapons, skilled in the art
of war and are ready to sacrifice their lives for my sake.
Duryodhana mentions only seven great
warriors on his side where as twenty of them on the Pandavas side. He mentions
neither himself nor Dushyasana in the list which is surprising. Others he knew
were on his side, would not leave him, were ready to die for him and they did
not really need mentioning by name.
