Verse 11.26

अमी च त्वां धृतराष्ट्रस्य पुत्राः सर्वे सहैवावनिपालसङ्घैः। भीष्मो द्रोणः सूतपुत्रस्तथाऽसौ सहास्मदीयैरपि योधमुख्यैः।।11.26।।

amī cha tvāṁ dhṛitarāśhtrasya putrāḥ sarve sahaivāvani-pāla-saṅghaiḥ bhīṣhmo droṇaḥ sūta-putras tathāsau sahāsmadīyair api yodha-mukhyaiḥ vaktrāṇi te tvaramāṇā viśhanti danṣhṭrā-karālāni bhayānakāni kechid vilagnā daśhanāntareṣhu sandṛiśhyante chūrṇitair uttamāṅgaiḥ

Meaning

It's like, *all* of Dhritarashtra's sons, every single king's army, Bhishma, Drona, Karna – the whole squad – plus our MVP warriors, were there.

Commentary

OMG, Karna's backstory is wild! Even tho he's low-key Kunti's son (major tea!), he was raised by a charioteer, so everyone just considered him the charioteer's kid.
