  • Summary

    The most dangerous part of Beijing was along Fuxing Road, Fuxingmen Avenue, and West Chang’an Avenue between 10 p.m. on June 3 and 1 a.m. on June 4 as the 38th Army forced its way through barriers and crowds on its way to Tiananmen Square. After arriving at Tiananmen, the 38th Army repeatedly opened fire on civilians at Nanchizi, just east of the square. The 15th Airborne also killed civilians as it approached the square from the south, passing through the Zhushikou intersection and entering Tiananmen by way of Qianmen.
