In the book The Odyssey how did Odysseus kill the suitors?

Odysseus had asked his son to lock the armory so that the suitors cannot defend themselves. After successfully shooting an arrow through the holes of the twelve axes, Odysseus shoots Antinous in the throat, and the suitors realize who the beggar - Odysseus - is. They try to flee, then attempt to get Odysseus away from the door so that they can escape. While Odysseus continues to shoot the suitors down, his son, Telemachus, gets spears and shields from the armory. After Odysseus runs out of arrows, he and his son use the spears to kill the suitors. They are helped by two servants. Eventually, Athena, goddess of war, makes her presence known in the form of a shield, and the suitors give up hope, and are slaughtered. Odysseus had killed 108 men, including 12 servants who had betrayed Odysseus (the maids had slept with the suitors, and a servant had mocked Odysseus when he was a beggar).

This clever tactic allows Odysseus and his men to escape from the Cyclops' cave afterward.
