Example.
The guy is supposed to fall on his sword then, you know? He's supposed to bleed to death and be gone. You've made her uncomfortable. I'm uncomfortable with that; therefore, it cannot happen! Come on. Get over your discomfort. Live with a little discomfort.

Question
what's the mean of "fall on"?

is it a mean of "attack"?

so for "fall on his sword", "attack with his sword" is the similar expresstion?

no , I'm afraid that in this context it simply means "to commit suicide"

This should offer a more detailed explanation

hope this helps.
