Pulley. This story is based on Chapter 39 of Yue Biography:

In the early years of Southern Song Dynasty, Jin Bing invaded Jiangnan. Yue Fei fought with Jin Wushu, and Yue Fei's military forces were besieged by Jin Bing in Niutoushan. Jin Wushu turned the iron pulley to stop Song Bing from rushing out of the mountain pass.

Jin Jun Marshal Ha Tielong blocked Gao Chong with an iron pulley. In desperation, he picked eleven pulleys with a gun. Eventually, because the horse was exhausted under the seat, he was trampled to death when picking the twelfth iron pulley.
