Warlords of the witcher world

Chapter 194 Go with the flow
The Protector has been in a much better mood recently.

This also made him sigh, it is better to have sex to relieve stress.

The feeling of eating secretly is also great. Katya's appearance and figure are very good, but she will get tired of eating the same big meal for a long time, so she needs to try other big meals, not to mention that he still has a long time. Didn't eat.

Now, the Protector will unconsciously straighten his back when walking, for no other reason than to feel comfortable.

Many keen servants and officials noticed this, but they were too smart to say anything.

If you talk about things without evidence, you won't be afraid of being tricked by the Protector.

And don’t forget, the Lord Protector is under the protection of the gods.

He feels much more comfortable now than before. After a night of passion, many of the worries in his mind will disappear, and his overall condition will be much better. He can cope with work with a better attitude, and his work efficiency will also increase. Much higher.

But despite his passion, the Protector was still worried about what to do if Katya found out.

When he thinks of these, he will feel uncontrollably guilty.

But now Katya's mind was entirely focused on the child in her belly, and she didn't even notice Hemei's stealing behavior.

As for staying out all night, she didn't take it seriously.

After all, ever since the war began, my husband had been staying up late at night because of his busy schedule.

On this day, after a night of fun with the little lover he had raised, and when he was about to return to the palace, Valentine hurried over and told the Lord Protector that there was something important that he needed to take charge of.

His attendant has always been calm and reliable, and since he is showing such an emotion now, it undoubtedly means that something big has really happened.

So he hurried to the palace and participated in the meeting.

The scale of this meeting was very large, and all the high-ranking figures in the military and political system of Aden gathered here.

When everyone arrived, the servants sent everyone a detailed report.

The Protector was sitting at the head table, and he was flipping through the documents. In fact, he already knew what happened, but it was unbelievable, so he kept flipping through the documents.

Hemei was able to learn about the matter in the short meeting before the meeting, but even so, he is still very surprised, so the decision on the matter was not discussed at all in the small meeting.

In the end, Hemei decided to put the matter at the general meeting to see everyone's opinions, instead of setting the direction in a small meeting as usual.

Next, everyone learned about the defection of the Nilfgaardian troops under the city of Elland, and... the large-scale chain reaction caused by this.

After the rebellion of the Amarillo division, the Nilfgaardians who received the news had a strong fear of it.

There are currently quite a few provincial troops deployed on the front line, and many of the troops have more than half or even a majority of provincials. If these people get into chaos and the northerners launch an attack, Nilfgaard's front will collapse immediately.

The Nilfgaardians held many close discussions over what to do with these forces.

The situation they are facing is very difficult. If they start to move the provincial troops back or arrest their officers, it will easily lead to a rebellion among the provincial troops. But if they do not do this, the threat of rebellion among the provincial troops will be there. There.

It can be said that no matter what we do, something will happen, and no one wants to take the responsibility.

"Wrong decision-making caused all the provincial troops to rebel." This is a crime no one wants to bear.

However, the reason for the current situation is that the morale of the military is still unstable. If the original Nilfgaardian Marshal is still there and gives an order, the unlucky guy will have to take the blame.

In the end, it was Emhyr who made the decision. Although there was no marshal, there was an emperor.

Although the emperor's military ability was tragic, his political thinking was very sharp.

Since now, whether they are mobilized or arrested, or not mobilized or arrested, it is very likely to cause rebellion, then arrest all these people and contain as many problems as possible.

In order to maintain the execution of the order, while letting the Nilfgaardian troops control the provincials in the army, Emhyr mobilized the power of the rising department under his command, the Imperial Security Office.

The Imperial Security Office controls many Iron Titans. These Iron Giants, who only obey the orders of the Emperor and the Security Office Chief, give this department great power.

At the same time, these giants also possess extremely powerful force. They have now been further transformed and their protection has been further strengthened.

Even the magic-blocking gold bomb cannot easily kill the Iron Giant.

A large number of steel giants followed the special forces to various provincial armies and controlled the officers of these troops.

The Imperial Special Forces are the troops that do all kinds of dirty work in the Empire. They are responsible for suppressing guerrillas, massacring villages and towns, special suppression and other tasks.

Basically, they are the kind of jobs that will stain one's body with blood. Of course, they also include suppression within the army.

Yes, Emhyr plans to arrest the disposable provincial officers directly.

Since moving the troops back will definitely arouse the vigilance of these people, it may lead to a violent reaction from them.

So instead of betting on whether these people will rebel, it is better to arrest them all directly.

Thanks to the instant connection between the Iron Giants, Special Forces operations ensured efficient consistency, with raids essentially being launched at the same time.

Most of the raids were successful, and the provincial officers were arrested indiscriminately. Most of the provincial officers did not realize what was going on, and a small number of those who resisted fiercely were executed on the spot.

It can be said that the plan was absolutely successful at the beginning.

But in the end, vigilant provincial officers evaded capture and instead eliminated the special forces.

After doing this, they rebelled and went north - because that was the only way they could.

The worst was yet to come. When the officers were being arrested, many provincial non-commissioned officers and soldiers who saw their officers being arrested felt a strong sense of crisis.

Coupled with the rumors about Nilfgaard that had been spreading in the army, and the resentment caused by the Nilfgaardians' long-term discrimination against the provincial people, many provincial soldiers directly rioted!

They attacked the Nilfgaardians in the army, freed their own commanders, then declared rebellion and fled to the northern side.

This was something no one expected, and the Nilfgaardians ignored the widespread anger among the province's soldiers, and they paid the price.

At this moment, the Nilfgaardian front became riddled with holes, and a large number of provincial troops rebelled in rumors and in fact.

This caused the Nilfgaardians to become unrest, and chaos instantly swept the army.

Some troops even began to massacre provincials in the army amid the chaos, which in turn caused more provincial soldiers to rebel.

The guerrillas operating across Temeria took advantage of this incident. They continued to exaggerate the impact of the rebellion, causing the spread of this incident to become increasingly outrageous.

What made the matter worse was that Vizima, who was troubled by this incident, issued an order to alert the provincial soldiers.

Normally, there is nothing wrong with this order, but in this chaotic period, the order has undergone drastic changes in the direct communication, from being wary of provincial soldiers to every provincial person being a potential traitor.

Coupled with the various rumors spread by the guerrillas, things have changed a lot.

Now the rear of the Nilfgaardian army can be said to be in chaos. The military uniforms can no longer prove the identity of the men in black, and they even have to be questioned about various knowledge and tricks that only real Nilfgaardians know.

Those who fail to answer these questions will be arrested, and those who are more extreme will be executed directly.

Even a Nilfgaardian general was captured and tortured because he couldn't answer the name of a famous gladiator from his hometown.

This is why Aedirn called an emergency meeting.

What happened to the Nilfgaardians and such a powerful opportunity were in front of them was really great for the northerners.

"Hey, something like this happened to the Nilfgaardians? Emhyr actually did this?"

After reading the reports about the chaos in Temeria again, Herme still had a hard time imagining how long it had only been before the situation turned into this.Hemei had a strong and outrageous attitude towards this matter, but these reports told him without a doubt that these were true.

There are still many problems with the Aedian army, such as recruit training, army deployment, and troop distribution... But these are not important now.

Heme knew he had to seize this opportunity.

"Lord Protector, this is an unprecedented opportunity. We must launch an attack immediately. The Nilfgaardians seem to be finished. As long as we launch an attack, the next victory will definitely belong to us!"

Lechitzky was very excited. He was the biggest activist here, and this was also true in the pre-conference meeting.

It seemed to him that the opportunity was at hand to drive out the Nilfgaardians.

As long as they seize this opportunity, they can drive away the Nilfgaardians and they can become the great heroes of the north.

Most importantly, the position of the Essenlanders will be consolidated in such a great victory.

Many people here also have the same attitude as Lechitzky, and they are very excited. The reason for the excitement is very simple. This war finally seems to be over.

And most importantly, the chance to win and glory.

"Forehead……"

Hemei continued to flip through the report. Why did he still feel that it was unreal?

The Nilfgaardian army was actually in such chaos?The opportunity to defeat the Nilfgaardians is just in front of him?

This thing is too good...

"Lord Protector! Do it!"

Viato stood up and expressed his attitude loudly,

"Let us attack Vizima directly! Drive out the dog emperor of Nilfgaard! No, hang him!"

Viato's words made all the younger generals present get excited, even many veterans - Po Tian's credit is right in front of him.

Invade Vizima and hang the Dog Emperor.

It has to be said that such a slogan has extremely strong appeal, and Hemei is a little moved.

But he still felt that other people's voices should be heard.

"Quiet! Quiet! Let others have their say!"

Valentin, Herme's attendant, shouted at this time. Having been Herme's attendant for so long, he had long since learned to take care of the Duke's face.

Now looking at the face of the Protector, he understood what the Protector was thinking, so he shouted like this.

Valentine's voice had long been developed and had become very loud. In addition, he often played the role of Hemei's mouth substitute, so everyone became quiet.

Seeing that everyone was quiet, finally, those mature and steady people began to speak. These people did not want to argue with the young people who were on top, which would easily make things messy.

The first person to speak was none other than Selchik, the White Knight of Aedirn.

"Lord Hermey, I want to express my opinion."

After seeing Herme nod, Selchik continued,

"I have read all this information. Their sources are too complicated, and the identification of the information is not done well. I admit that the spies who collected this information are very good. They combine the sources of the information and their speculations about the information. It was written, but the intelligence identification is really bad, why can even the poems written by a certain great poet through hearsay be used as intelligence?"

Selchik's words really touched Hermey's heart. He also noticed a lot of such information, which was one of the important reasons for his doubts.

Then Herme couldn't help but think of Charron. If he were here, maybe this situation wouldn't happen... He regretted sending Charron to Novigrad.

But after thinking about it, he didn't regret it so much. The Eternal Fire Church was also very important. In order to ensure that the Eternal Fire would not fall towards Radovid, it was worth sending Charon there.

"Based on my many years of combat history, some of this information is credible, and some is very suspicious. It cannot be completely used to judge the situation on the front line. However, it is certain that the Nilfgaardian army is in chaos. We still We need to take advantage of this opportunity, so I suggest launching a limited offensive and not rashly launching a siege on Vizima."

Selchik's suggestions were very sound and received consistent support from the veterans present, and the next supporters were the civil servants of Aedirn.

The limited offensive meant that they did not need to transport as many supplies and the workload was not that heavy.

The current chief civil officer, Dunwa, has always had a bitter look on his face from the beginning of the meeting to the present. No matter what decision is made, he will take materials and money from him, and he will take a lot of it.

For those in charge of materials and money, nothing is more uncomfortable than this...

Duke Alex looked indifferent. Anyway, to him, it didn't matter what orders were given from above, he just had to carry them out.

The Duke no longer has any thoughts of political struggle. He now believes that the Lord Protector is right and only intends to follow in the footsteps of the Lord Protector - this is also the view of many nobles behind him.

As for Lechicki and Viato, these militants were very uncomfortable hearing Selchik's words, but after all, they were not people who opposed just for the sake of opposition. The political ecology of Aden was not as bad as that of a bad zone. Grant that Selchik's judgment was correct.

After Selchik, several more people put forward their opinions, and Hemei nodded to these opinions.

In fact, these speeches are all similar, and they are nothing more than about steady march, but they all put forward some details that need to be paid attention to, which gave Hemei a lot of inspiration.

Of course, the main war factions also had to speak. Compared with the fanatical agitation before, their speeches now included a lot more rational analysis. They made, for example, the comparison between the current Aedirian army and the Nilfgaardian army. Such a narrative leads to a winning conclusion.

Hermey also wrote these down, there are always things that can be used.

Finally, as the last person finished speaking, Hemei also sorted out the general ideas.

After making sure no one wanted to speak anymore, Herme revealed his plan.

"First of all, it is necessary to launch an attack on the Nilfgaardians. Whether it is in Anglin or Elland, the offensive must start. We must also bring the remnants of Temeria's army in Carias. If we had the help of these former Temerian armies, our advance in Temeria would undoubtedly be much smoother."

The remnants of the Temerian army were included as part of the counterattack force by Heme very early on. These Temerians are very useful.

"Then, the main goal of our attack is not to besiege Vijima, but to control the entire northern territory surrounding the Mahakam Mountains. After completing this stage of the offensive, we will proceed to the next step of the attack. For Vijima Ma, we only need to ensure a mobile force to monitor. This force will act according to opportunities. If Redania besieges Vizima, then they will assist the Redanians in attacking."

Radovid of Redania will inevitably launch a full-scale offensive from the Pontar River, and Heme intends to let him touch Vizima to see how much strength the Nilfgaardians still have.

However, these words of Hemei undoubtedly disappointed those passionate men.

In their view, the Lord Protector gave the Redanians the opportunity to regain the capital of Temeria.

The Aedian army was very dissatisfied with the bald man, thinking that he was an onion, and he dared to show off to the Lord Protector.

But all they could do was accept this reality. The Aedirian army was still very obedient in front of Herme.

After all, besides being the Protector of the Country, the most important thing for Hemei is her status as a Hundred Battles General. With this status, no one dares to dissent.

"Finally, I hope that you will strictly implement the plan and do not violate orders. This offensive may allow us to drive the Nilfgaardians out of the north, or it may lead to our failure, but we must deal with it with all our strength. "

Hemei looked at everyone present and saw the seriousness in their eyes.

"Okay, let's go and execute it. May God Cliff favor us."

"May God bless you!"

Everyone answered neatly that they had no doubts about the victory. After all, it was Hermey who gave the order.
