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!
Preventive Measures Towards Being Stabbed in the Back
Bruno sat across from Erich. The man seemed to be doing quite well for himself. Recently having gotten back from the Balkans, Erich was clean shaven, and well groomed. Far more so than Bruno had ever seen the man before, immediately calling into question what the occasion was.
And in doing so completely forgetting, at least temporarily at the reason he had summoned his mad dog to meet with him over lunch.
"You sure have cleaned yourself up nicely. What's the occasion? Are you finally going to beat the rumors and marry a nice young lady?"
Erich's expression did not sour, unlike how it normally did when Bruno made fun of him for the rumors he had started years in the past. Rumors that persisted because Erich was such a broken man that he had no desire to marry or have a family, rather his one fancy was engaging in violence towards other human beings.
