Peculiar you don't quote this:
But maybe it really makes it "the night when nothing at all happened" for you, a literal tankie.
It's well known the people have been mostly killed in the main streets of Peking, not in the square itself. Including in front of foreign embassies, and the PLA even fired at these embassies because they were shooting up buildings indiscriminately as they drove by. On occasions they also shot at each other (different units).
The tank man scene is also not from the square itself and actually from the dawn "after". When the killings didn't stop yet, for example the somewhat famous daylight scene of the soldiers shooting at crashing ambulances is from that time, and also not at the square (as if it really matters).
