Re: Blood and Iron
Karl Wagner is a disgruntled middle-aged instructor at the Bundeswehr Command and Staff College. He finds himself concerned about the direction which the German nation is headed in—just as he is killed by a terrorist attack. Only to awaken and find himself reborn as an infant, Bruno von Zehntner, the youngest son of a noble family renowned for its part in the German war industry a few years after the founding of the German Empire. Bruno, as he is now known, desires to rewrite history and ensure the German Empire emerges victorious in the coming century. And in doing so, finds himself entrenched in a world filled with Blood and Iron!
Madness and Stupidity
Bruno and Svetozar returned to the German encampment that had been made in the mountains for the sake of housing and supplying the 20,000 or so German Soldiers who Bruno had brought with him to the Austrian alps.
Quite frankly, Bruno did not know how much time the German Kaiser and his Austrian counterpart had been planning this joint military exercise, but it must have been months in the making. Either way, he really didn't care, as that was not his responsibility.
Though the Kaiser didn't explicitly explain his reason for sending Bruno to Austria as the leader of his forces. The answer was already obvious to the man. He was here firstly to show off the failures of the Austro-Hungarian Army, and to strengthen the relationship between the German Reich and their southern neighbors.
