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!
Italian Treachery
While Bruno was conducting a joint military exercise with the Austro-Hungarian Empire within the alps. There was another party which was invited to the event but remained neutral to it. Despite officially signing to a defensive alliance between the Kingdom of Italy, the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and the German Reich. King Emanuel III of Italy felt as if German buildup of fortifications on their western border with France, Belgium, the Netherlands, and Denmark was an act of unnecessary provocation.
Considering the fact that they had also begun to join military exercises with Austria-Hungary, it was as if the German Kaiser was telling the world that war was on the horizon, and they would be prepared for any such conflict.
