The Wooden Horse in the Trojan War

The Trojan war began in Troy when Paris, the prince of Troy ran away with Helen, wife of Menelaus of Sparta. The war was fought by Trojans, people of Troy and Sparta, the Greek for 10 years. In the end the Greeks won the war by using a clever trick, the Wooden Horse  to capture Troy. The Greeks pretended to sail away but, they left a giant wooden horse filled with Greek soldiers in front of the gates of Troy. The Trojans took the wooden horse into Troy. At night while the Trojans were asleep, the Greeks opened the city gates to let in the Greek army. Troy got destroyed by the Greeks.

What other tricks you think the Greeks could have used to capture Troy?
