Option C is the right answer.

Colonel Kit Carson was ordered to remove the Navajo Indians from their land and to relocate any survivor in the New Mexico with a purpose to civilize them. When the groups of Navajo denied accepting control on reservations, Carson (a mountain man) waged a devastating campaign against the Navajos by destroying settlements, burning crop, and slaughtering livestock.
