I will explain in this article on how to come in and out of chakravyuha,the warrio formation or vyuha in the kurukshetra war.
This is the vyuha.
The use of foot soldiers standing in the vyuha is mostly omitted.The Mahabharata war is mainly fought by warriors on chariots,and Maharathis or rathis or Archers.At some points elephants are also positioned.But there is some distance between a chariots.You could see the chakravyuha here.The right side 3 line arc is the entrance to the vyuha.
The Attacking army will attack the the three lines on the right side,by breaking those defenses.When the left side of the vyuha warriors tries to close in on the attack the approaching side and encircle them,the remaining side of the attacking army then engages with them.Some of them attack the right side warriors,some of them will attack the left side warriorsWhen the right side defenses are destroyed,the attacking army will then battle with the fourth line of the chakravyuha.When they are successfully defeated or stopped by the right side vyuha warriors,they can turn back and the left side fourth line can be defeated.if this is acheived the right side attackers and the left side attackers can simultaneoulsy attack the vyuha warriors on the right side fourth line.If they are successful in this,the entire chakravyuha can be breached.The attackers from behind will attack,but the attacking army from the left and right side can defeat them.So its about attacking the right side three lines first,and the left side three lines next.And after defeating the fourth line on the right,the arny will then turn the direction to the left side and come back and support the left side attackers.Then the warriors will attack the fifth line,and sixth line and defeat them,and get to the center.
This will depend on the capability of the attacking warriors,and their ability to defeat the defending vyuha warriors.While the chakravyuha gives the advnatage to the defending side,if the attacking army is good,then it can be breached and defending army can be defeated.The chakravyuha doesnt guarantee victory.If the defending side is good,then when the attacking army attacks the right side three lines,the left side defending army can attack and encircle them and defeat them.
Abhimanyu probably breached teh chakravyuha by defeating the first three lines of the chakravyuha.The pandava warriors followed him.Jayadratha was attacking from the three lines on the left side and encirlced the pandava warriors,and he stopepd them them from defending Abhimanyu.Abhimanyu attacked the fourth line,and was separated from pandava warriors.It was in that center fourth to sixth line the main warriors were positioned,and he fought with them,and was killed becasue he couldnt defeat those warriors who were superior to them.
