Operation Carrot

Operation Carrot, or rather more appropriately the theoretical Operation Carrot was a proposed idea in the Empire of Uldarash to decisively win the Great Western War. Ultimately however, the idea was rejected as it was deemed unethical and far to destructive, even in the instance of war.
=== Conception ===
Some days before the war Sergeant Gencarrot of the Uldarashi Military was performing a stand reconnaissance operation in Bardonia, with the primary purpose of searching for different routes of attack. This was before the establishment of Uldarash's siege camp and even before it was decided to use the Ardatian siege tactic, meaning Uldarashi Command was looking over all the possible options for invading this land that none of them had ever seen before. It was during this search that Sergeant Carrot discovered a vast series of tunnels under the city, with opening beginning far beyond the reach, and more importantly notice of Bardonia and extending all the way into the center of the city. 
Reporting this back to command, various methods of utilizing these tunnels came up, including eventually, Operation Carrot. (note: Operation Carrot was not proposed by Sergeant Carrot, rather it is named this as he was the one who found the tunnels)
=== Details ===
The proposed Operation Carrot would entail Uldarashi Chosen, before the war began, or perhaps during, to go into the tunnels and fill them to the brim with TNT. Then, at an appropriate time when all Uldarashi soldiers were evacuated from the premise, the TNT would be denotated by flaming arrow. From the size of the tunnels and their access to the city, this plan easily would have leveled the city to a crater.
=== Outcome ===
The proposed operation was never seriously considered, being soundly rejected by Uldarashi leadership, as it was seen as 'going to far' and being unethical. Ironically, Uldarash would go on to lose the war, being absolutely decimated by the defenses of Bardonia, begging the question: could things have been different? Despite their loss, Uldarash expresses satisfaction with their action, (or rather inaction) although one can't help but to wonder
