The Story of Trojan Horse

Long ago, the prince lived in Troia, Asia Minor, abducted Greek beauty Helen - the wife of Spartan king Menelaus. This incident sparked outrage in the whole Greek, so they organized a Greek coalition and started expedition.
    They fought for 10 years, but there's no result.

    Odysseus came up with an idea. He let people make a huge Trojan. The Trojan's belly was empty, containing many very brave soldiers. They sent a young man called Sinon hiding under the Trojan. After all the arrangements in place, the Greeks burned their huts and debris, leaving a huge horse and Sino.

    Troia people soon noticed the smoke and fire on the coast and found that the Greeks boat had already left. They flock to the coast happily and found a huge horse surprisingly.

    The huge horse looked very smart and delicate. It seemed like a real horse that can walk. At first, they appreciated the artwork, but then they began to argue how to deal with it. Some suggested placing it in the city as a souvenir of victory. Others couldn't believe the strange gift left by the enemy. At this moment, Sinon stood out and said to Trojan people: This horse was the gift that Greek people sent to intelligence goddess Athena. If you placed them in the city, you would get the blessing of Athena. But if you broke it in any way, you city would be destroyed by Athena.

    Troia people believed Sinon and shifted the horse to the city carefully. Sinon went to the city with them, too. When it was dark, the Trojan laid a grand feast to celebrate the victory, and all of them got drunk. At midnight, Sinon set fire and shook. The Greek army came quickly. Greek soldiers hidden in the belly of the hose had scattered throughout the city. They occupied Trojan city and regained Helen. The war, which lasted 10 years, came to an end.
