Answer:

C .He saw technology as a way to strengthen his army through the use of frightening new weapons.

Step-by-step explanation:

Despite his reputation as a fearsome military leader, Genghis Khan was known as someone who are fascinated with progress. He never missed a chance to adopt new technology that he seem as superior from his opponent and adopt it into his own.

As a result, his army keep increasing in might and numbers, making it almost impassable for the neighboring countries to deal with them. One example of this was the adaptation of gun powder into military. He was among the first leaders in the world to see the opportunity to weaponized gun powder and transition his military's long range weapons.
