Answer:

They retaliated against the army. They responded with retaliation and anger.

Step-by-step explanation:

In December 1922, Germany stopped paying. In retaliation, the French army invaded the Ruhr and seized goods and factories to make up for the lack of payment. Germany could not respond with force as its military was too weak, so the German government ordered workers to resist the occupation using passive resistance.
