A Correct answer
Explanation

After the death of Dronacharya, Karna was appointed as the General (Supreme Commander) of the Duryodhana's army on the 15th day of the Kurukshetra war. This was a significant moment as Duryodhana had long respected Karna's prowess. Bhishma was the first commander who fell on the 10th day, and Drupada fought against Duryodhana, not for him. Ashvatthama took over command after Karna's death, not before.
