What did Duryodhan say to Drona before the war?

Bhagavad Gita: Chapter 1 Verse 2 Explained

Translation:

Sanjay spoke:

O King, on seeing the army formation (i.e. Viyuh Rachna) of the Pandava army, King Duryodhan went to his Guru (Acharya Drona) and spoke these words.

Sanjay narrates Bhagavad Gita to Dhritarashtra

Commentary:

Acharya Drona was the guru of both Kauravas and Pandavas. He taught them all skills necessary to become a warrior. However, during the war of Mahabharata, Drona sided with the Kauravas as they were the de-facto rulers of Hastinapur. Drona always preferred to stick with royalty and that was the reason for his choice despite Arjun being his favourite student.
