plenty is wrong in A
A clarification :
in reaching New York City and to reach Charleston-- can in reaching and to reach would have parallelism error or we can accept it to some extent depending if there are no other errors in the sentence.

"In reaching" and "to reach" mean very different things, so we would be unlikely to use them in parallel. When we use the construction "in + -ing," we are setting ourselves up to talk about the significance of the activity: "In reaching this goal, I have fulfilled a lifelong dream of mine."

The first shots of the American Revolution, fired at Lexington and Concord, Massachusetts, were, according to legend, heard around the world, but news of these shots, which were sent by swift messenger, took four days in reaching New York City as well as another additional eleven days to reach Charleston, South Carolina.
(A) shots, which were sent by swift messenger, took four days in reaching New York City as well as another additional eleven days -- 'which' is modifying 'shots'
(B) shots that was sent by swift messenger took four days in order to reach New York City, and also another eleven days -- Incorrect modifier
(C) shots that were sent by swift messenger took four days to reach New York City and another eleven days -- Incorrect modifier
(D) shots took four days by swift messenger in order to reach New York City and another eleven days in addition - Redundant/wordy
(E) shots took four days by swift messenger to reach New York City and another eleven days -- Correct
