D.Atahualpa

"On 17 November the Spaniards sacked the Inca army camp, in which they found great treasures of gold, silver, and emeralds. Noticing their lust for precious metals, Atahualpa offered to fill a large room about 22 feet (6.7 m) long and 17 feet (5.2 m) wide up to a height of 8 feet (2.4 m) once with gold and twice with silver within two months. It is commonly believed that Atahualpa offered this ransom to regain his freedom; however, it seems likelier that he did so to avoid being killed, as none of the early chroniclers mention any commitment by the Spaniards to free Atahualpa once the metals were delivered." -

What motivated the Red Guards to create chaos during the Cultural
vazorg [7]

Answer:

The right answer here is B. A desire to destroy anything that could threaten communism in China.

Explanation:

The Red Guards turned into one of the most effective and dealiest instruments of Chairman Mao Zedong´s manipulation during the Cultural Revolution. The real purpose of Mao was to destroy and remove from office his political opponents and critics, thus consolidating his position as Red China´s paramount leader. He used his wife Jiang Qing and other radicals to launch and promote the campaign. Its official aim was to destroy vestiges of the old, traditional, "reactionary" Chinese culture - such as Confucianism, Buddhism - and burgueois, rightist elements in the Communist Party. The Red Guards movement started in universities and schools. Mao was delighted about them and allowed their abuses. They publicly denounced, vilified, beat and humilliated hundreds of thousands of innocent people. They were a magnificent weapon of caos and destruction.
