This war's going to last forever. Who's got any ideas on how to take Troy?
Just let him try it. If it fails, then we'll all go home
Wait what? You seriously plan to take Troy with a wooden horse?
I suggest a wooden horse!
A wooden horse was constructed. Soldiers were hidden inside.
The Greeks sailed off to another island close to Troy, pretending they had retreated. They left behind a lone soldier and the wooden horse to convince the Trojans that they had won.
It worked. King Priam knocked down the city walls and brought the horse into the city. One person, Aeneas, opposed the idea, but his warnings were ignored.
This is a dumb idea. We should remove a plank and see if there are soldiers inside.
WHAT? NO!
For the last time, NO!
Build a fire underneath and see if someone coughs?
At night, when the Trojans were asleep, the Greek soldiers crept out of the horse and lit a fire on top of a tower to signal the Greek fleet.
The Greek fleet came back and slaughtered everyone in Troy except Aeneas, who escapes.
