Solution

The correct option is A To attack the enemy without being seen
Bastions were made in the front wall to ensure the security and to see at a distance and attack on enemies coming towards the fort from serval direction. Big holes were made in the bastions to attack the enemy without being seen also to increase the viewing area. Thus the soldiers peeping through it could have a better vigilance.
