The soldiers are bored and tired. Odysseus, who was also loved by Athena thanks to his intelligence, came up with the idea of ​​making a wooden horse. According to the plan, the Achaeans appear to be withdrawing from the war and leave a very large wooden horse behind. While Odysseus and other distinguished commanders hide inside the horse, the others go to sea and hide the ships behind Bozcaada, where the Trojans cannot see them. In order for the plan to work, they leave an Achaean soldier next to the horse, whose duty is to ensure that the wooden horse enters the walls of Troy.
