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!
Entertaining the Nobles of Japan
After receiving the Order of the Rising sun in its highest class, Bruno found that the Japanese Generals and admirals had quickly begun to treat him differently. Perhaps they were unaware of the prestigious honor he was to be awarded, or they simply looked down on him as a foreigner until the moment that Emperor himself pinned that medal to his chest.
But regardless of the actual reason for this sudden change in behavior, Bruno now found himself being treated as a war hero of the highest caliber. Generals and admirals alike took the opportunity to approach him, and give a brief but respectful toast in honor of his achievements.
While several of them shamelessly tried to curry favor with the man by introducing their daughters and granddaughters, entirely unaware that Bruno was already very happily married. Bruno did not entertain these offers, and merely respectfully acknowledged the women and girls while refusing to be in conversations alone with them.
