Solution

The correct option is D Bastions
Bastions helped in surveillance. Bastions are made in the fort walls to see at a distance and help to keep an eye on the enemy. This also helped soldiers to launch attacks on the enemy.
Ditches are made around the forts and to stop enemies from reaching the fort easily.
Gates prevent the enemy from entering the forts.
Fountains were made to decorate the forts and palaces.
