Explanation:

The word "militia" typically refers to a military force consisting of ordinary citizens rather than professional soldiers. In the context of the sentence, the speaker is sending money so that "they can defend our fatherland", which aligns with the idea of a group of civilians trained as soldiers (a militia) rather than other options like a small group of indispensable persons (no indication of indispensability in the context), a group of representatives (no mention of representing), or a set of three (no such indication).

Answer:

B. a group of civilians trained as soldiers
