B. Goods and valuable property should be moved or destroyed to prevent enemy use.

Explanation:

Initially stalin used a "Not one step back approach" meant that all positions be held at all costs which means that most of the commanding officers that have suffered defeats as Germans had advanced to subdue the Soviet Union be shot and replaced. Then, political commissars enforced the tactic that there should be no retreat from the Germans. But, Stalin soon realized that tactical retreats were necessary and He suggests that anything or property of material value to the German's be destroyed.

Stalin moved the entire factories East beyond Urals and out of reach for the Germans. This approach allowed The Soviets Union to produce military hardware like tanks, and planes at a pace which the Germans were unable to match.
