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!
The Red Army's loss at Tsaritsyn spread quickly throughout the world. After all, it was the second siege in which their forced had been decimated. 180,000 Marxists lie dead, while the losses sustained by the Tsarist Loyalists and accompanying Iron Division were in the tens of thousands. It was a significant gap in terms of casualties.
But Bruno was all too aware that just because you win every battle, did not mean that you will necessarily win the war in the end. This was a war fought for the future of the Russian Motherland, and if the Tsar failed to win the hearts and minds of the people, then he would inevitably lose the war even if he won every conflict fought between him and the revolutionaries.
