What was the reason for Washington crossing the Delaware River in winter? To capture the key city of Princeton. To open the west for a Canadian route to overtake the enemy. To defeat the opposing army from an unprotected front. To gather troops from the neighboring areas.

It is answer C I am pretty sure. He crossed the Delaware to take a group of Hessians by surprise.
