OG蓝皮SC-98-------有点争议！！！～

Although Napoleon's army entered Russia with far more supplies than they had in their previous campaigns, it had provisions for only twenty-four days.

A. they had in their previous campaigns,
B. their previous campaigns had had,
C. they had for any previous campaign,
D. in their previous campaigns,
E. for any previous campaign,


正确答案---E，我选择了C，OG说这里they，their都不能指代army因为是单数，但我觉得这种集体词就如country一样，我也可以指军中的每一位士兵，用they也说的过去啊？然后E选项只接了介词，主谓都省了，但前面的比较里是they entered Russia，那这里不就是他们这次entered Russia带的补给比原来entered Russia打仗带的补给都要多，这样不就是有歧义了吗？好乱哦～ 哪位NN能帮我解惑一下，感激，感激！！！！

it had provisions for only twenty-four days.

Here, what does "it" refer to??

sdcar2010

"it" is not campaigns, not supplies, not Russia. "it" could only be __________.

Got it!!!!! It could only refer to the Great "army", so A.B.C.D must be wrong!!! Really appreciate your help!!!!!!~

One more question, please~  Does the abbreviation of the "SV" in the choice E cause any ambiguity, I mean, just as what I mentioned in the #.1 floor. I'll look forward your answer, thank you very much!~
