Correct Answer: The captain ordered the soldiers to advance at dawn.
An imperative sentence expressing a command is reported with "ordered/told + object + to-infinitive". "Said to" changes to "ordered" here because it is a command. Option (c) follows this rule; the other options are grammatically incorrect.
