Many such cases in history, and even the Bible.

Joshua fit the battle of Jericho.

the story being that Joshua was leading lots of pedes to march around, and around, and around Jericho.

Jericho was the first city attacked by the Israelites after they crossed the Jordan River and entered Canaan. The Wall of Jericho was destroyed when the Israelites walked around it for seven days carrying the Ark of the Covenant. https://www.google.com/search?q=Story+of+Jericho&oq=Story+of+Jericho&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUyBggAEEUYOTIGCAEQLhhA0gEINDc5MWowajGoAgCwAgA&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8

The symbolism is that walled cities were a projection of power over the countryside. The Israelites returning from Egypt were a massive crowd of perambulating pedes armed only with the power of God. The walls came tumblin' down symbolizes the power of the pedes, over the hapless, but power-projecting, walled-city-dwellers. This idea purportedly took root among American slaves - hence the spritual. But my point is that Joshua is a story of hope for those who are enslaved and breaking out.
