on sight N,
on sight 本身是介词短语,含“一看到就”、“ 一经要求就”或“一露面就”的意思,相当于immediately when seeing 、at once when seeing 或 as soon as ,既可以用作连词引导状语从句,也可以直接用作副词短语作状语.
 
第一个句子的 on sight  起连词作用,引导状语从句 anyone trying to escape,修饰主句中的动词,意思是“一看见有人试图逃跑马上就命令卫兵开枪”.可以改写如下:
 

The guards were ordered to shoot (as soon as they saw) anyone trying to escape.

 
另外的两个句子中的 on sight 都是做状语的副词短语,可以分别改写如下:
 

They had orders to shoot (immediately when seeing anyone).

Next time,I kill you (at once when I saw you),you hear me?
