Personally, I see a lot of bad writing in this game - this part of the story included. What was the point of going and asking for his help if you already knew what the snobbish and arrogant emperor would want? Of course he was going to have strings attached to such a request, though it seems kinda stupid that he wouldn't just allow someone - like a witcher - who knows the layout and land of Kaer Morhen to be the general of his troops against The Wild Hunt all for his daughter's sake. It really doesn't make sense. Also, I'd like to add that Voorhis actually doesn't seem, or come across, like an enemy to Geralt. So, Geralt being against him in the position of general doesn't make sense to me. Geralt is a witcher and wouldn't allow political squabbles to get in the way, especially when it comes to Ciri's safety. Here's another reason why this part doesn't make sense. Consider the emperor actually just sends troops and allows someone at Kaer Morhen to be the general - Vesemir, Yen, or even Geralt come to mind. What's to stop the troops from trying to slaughter everyone and bringing Ciri home? This is why this part of the story is backwards and doesn't make sense one way or the other. They should've just excluded this quest entirely considering Geralt and Emhyr don't see eye-to-eye, especially regarding Ciri, and this is practically thrown in the player's face every time they're together. Serisouly, I only went through with this quest because I don't like having failed quests in my game, but it's a useless quest that should've been removed.
