Correct Answer: have crossed


Solution : The correct choice is the second option.

The original sentence has a grammatical error. "Have cross" should be corrected to "have crossed" to maintain proper verb tense. The correct sentence conveys the idea that the enemies have already crossed the border and are now treading the soil where they are to be conquered.

Therefore, the complete sentence is: "The enemies have crossed the border, treading the soil on which they are to be conquered."
