Answer questions 33-35 on the basis of information given in the following situation.
Rose is the Queen of Kingdom A and Emily is the Queen of Kingdom B; both share a common border. They also share a border with Kingdom C, a much larger kingdom, ruled by King Jonathan who has expansive ambitions. Though individually their armies were no match to his might, together their armies were more powerful than King Jonathan’s army.
Jonathan’s kingdom also bordered Kingdom K on the opposite side, making Kingdom C a buffer state between Kingdoms A, B and K. Kingdom K is ruled by King Summer Sault, who united a group of warring and belligerent tribes under his aegis. Kingdom K and Kingdom C had continuous skirmishes with each other.
Jonathan aims to invade and annex Kingdom K once and for all.
Which of the following options will best enable him to accomplish the ambition?
Rose and Emily would not help Jonathan in annexing K as it may make him stronger. Hence, neither option A nor B can be the answer. It is not indicated if Rose and Emily have any intentions of attacking Jonathan. Even if a rift is created between Emily and Rose, they would realise the intentions of Jonathan when he attempts to annex K. Thus, Jonathan should secretly double his army so that neither Emily nor Rose would know about it. Hence, option D is the best option.
