<P> The Trojan Horse is a tale from the Trojan War about the subterfuge that the Greeks used to enter the independent city of Troy and win the war . In the canonical version , after a fruitless 10 - year siege , the Greeks constructed a huge wooden horse , and hid a select force of men inside . The Greeks pretended to sail away , and the Trojans pulled the horse into their city as a victory trophy . That night the Greek force crept out of the horse and opened the gates for the rest of the Greek army , which had sailed back under cover of night . The Greeks entered and destroyed the city of Troy , ending the war . </P>
