I stash the object and rush up to the golem drawing two of my swords. I stand on the other side of the porter and stab my swords into the ground giving the man something to push against.

In the history of short rest, its was a short one. Subötaï was enjoying the moment when, suddenly, they started running. "But what about the Blue Palace?" Well, this mission derailed quickly, he thought while catching up with the others.
Now, how to stop a golem? This formidable machinery looks inmovable. But maybe if we oil it up...
Subötaï throws his flask of oil at the golem's feet.

The crowed ooooohed as Frog Froth drew their sword and rushed at the golem. Was the slugman about to enter battle? But no. Some groaned in disappointment as the slugman looked to stab the ground but found few opportunities to do so, the bridge being made of stone.
The crowed then aaaaaahed as Subotai oiled the ground at the golem's feet - it started skidding, and finally Pinpehlu was able to stop it to a stand still! Urchins cheered and the adult began talking animatedly.
But this was not a permanent solution - eventually Pinpehlu would tire, and the golem would surge forward....

Miu stands beside Pinpehlu and begins to push.
"Come on! If we work together, we can topple this golem over. Then I can tie this rope around its legs and stop it from moving altogether."

And then what? I work on helping to push the golem

Miu turns to Frog Froth, both of them pushing the golem alongside Pinpehlu.
"Absolutely no idea. Arrr... But this will... buy us some time. Then we can think it over."
Then to himself, he says a little too loudly:
"What have we gotten ourselves into..."

Dubi Gan realised that he was gawking like the other onlookers and he snapped into action. He grabbed an end to the rope and moved to the other side of the golem, his feet slipping a bit on the oily stones. "Tip it over!" he suggested.

The situation became a stalemate - efforts to trip the golem were successful, but it would only get up. Pinpehlu had to be careful not to step on the oil lest he lose his grip too. The golem was not clever - it did not attempt to circumvent the obstacle, which it understood to be mobile, only go ahead onto the bridge (and, quite possibly, fall off it). But it did not tire either. You estimate that you may be able to keep it at bay a few minutes - maybe 15 if you really pace yourself. But the current situation will not last forever.
Here is a rough sketch of the situation. I've ruled that Miu is pulling on it with a rope. There are a few dozen bystanders (I didn't feel like drawing all of them), including a slugman and a Lamarhakhi boat.

Dubai Gan sighed, " IF we cannot find a way to subdue it soon, we must give up! This has been too much of a distraction from our mission, as interesting as it may be."
He looked around for something else to do...
