Answer:
The Battle of Bunker Hill was fought on June 17, 1775, during the Siege of Boston in the early stages of the American Revolutionary War. The battle is named after Bunker Hill in Charlestown, Massachusetts, which was peripherally involved in the battle. It was the original objective of both the colonial and British troops, though the majority of combat took place on the adjacent hill which later became known as Breed's Hill.[5][6]
On June 13, 1775, the leaders of the colonial forces besieging Boston learned that the British were planning to send troops out from the city to fortify the unoccupied hills surrounding the city, which would give them control of Boston Harbor. In response, 1,200 colonial troops under the command of William Prescott stealthily occupied Bunker Hill and Breed's Hill. During the night, the colonists constructed a strong redoubt on Breed's Hill, as well as smaller fortified lines across the Charlestown Peninsula.[7]

The answer that best describes the rhetorical strategy that Henry uses here is D. rhetorical question. Rhetorical questions are those that do not necessarily demand an answer - the answer is either obvious so it doesn't have to be stated, or there is no reason to say it.
However, if you need more than one option, I'd also choose interrogative statement, given that this strategy involves the use of questions, which fall under the category of interrogative sentences.
