The correct response is: He paid more people to join the British forces and fight.

William Pitt, as the British Prime Minister during the French and Indian War, greatly increased military spending and provided more resources for the war effort. This ultimately helped the British to raise and maintain a larger and more effective force, contributing significantly to Britain's victory in the war.
