Elyse · Answer 2

The correct answer is So the guards can keep control of the situation and bring them to the gulag.

The gulag incarcerated millions of people, turning them into prisoners in camps working in dangerous or hazardous conditions without any kind of protection or proper instruments. The guards wanted to prove themselves and earn respect from their leaders and superiors so by presenting their accomplishment under control they would do so.
