my doubt cleared


 I always doubted that on the seventeenth day of the war,after yudhishtira,arjuna fled from the battlefield,Arjuna loaded his chariot fully with arrows,weapons before starting to battle against karna.This is mentioned in kmg verison.He had already taken rest,and was fresh.Karna on that other hand was on the battlefield,and his arrows were getting exhausted.When Arjuna started battle with karna,the battle went on for two hours before Karna's chariot was stuck.Shalya refused to lift the chariot wheel.Karna continued the battle from the chariot.The chariot protectors already fled the battlefield.After a while his arrows were almost exhausted.It was here that he got down and asked Arjuna to wait till he lifted the chariot wheel.Because the wheel protectors would have filled the chariot with arrows,and they were not there.And if he had to take the chariot back,he had to lift the wheel.My own opinion is that karna should have fled the battlefield.before Arjuna could have followed him,but he should have reached safety.And the next day,he should have arrived with a new chariot without shalya as the charioteer.he could have defeated Arjuna then.
