I think you might hear about the scorched earth policy. Let's understand what is the scorched earth policy.
This is the military strategy where the military makes sure that nothing will be left for the enemy to use. In this strategy military will assure that enemy will not get any advantages of left weapons, vehicles, food, or any other resources. So for making sure anything useful is not left behind military simply destroys the material and resources.
To simplify the term let's take an example, where one house is captured forcefully by one person. Now the legitimate owner of the house tried and got successful to get his house back. In this case, the person who forcefully captured the house simply fires the house so it will become useless for the owner of the house. [Source of Example: Source]
