Bruno stepped foot into a room which had a large map displayed across a table of substantial size. It was a global map, or as the world's borders currently stood. And there were pieces displayed upon it representing Russian and Japanese forces.
The Russian Army, as Bruno anticipated had fallen back to Mukden, and was currently building fortifications in the area. Meanwhile, the Japanese Third Army and its supporting elements were on the move to encircle the Russian position as per Bruno's suggested strategy.
When the Japanese generals saw Bruno enter the room, their attention quickly shifted to him. As did Emperor Meiji's who was standing over the map and moving pieces that represented his own forces. His expression seemed stern as he welcomed Bruno into his personal war chamber.
