1940, Manstein is currently in his room, looking at a map and planning, Fall Blau was soon, and he needed to plan for the blitz against France, going trough Belgium and Luxembourg, he could only hope this wont end up like another 1917. He doesnt want to be disturbed right now, he probably already has a head ache

He recently got out of a meeting with other generals aswell, Hitler was mad as they took longer to conquer Poland then needed, that alone made his headache worse, the only thing he currently wanted is to just end this and go home to his wife. He thought to himself 'Gottverdammnt... when will this end..?'

He continued to plan for fall Blau, hoping that it will go swiftly, if it didn't, surely the German Reich was doomed to fall, he had to succede. He fixed his hat before continuing to plan
