In his youth, he had ridden through many places, and fought (many battle).

Solution:

Ans: (c) 

The correct phrases that can be used here are: many + battles (plural noun) or many + a + battle (singular noun).


In other words, 'many a' is followed by a singular countable noun and takes a singular verb with it. Therefore,, it is appropriately phrased as 'many a battle'.

C is the right answer.
