The trick is pretty simple.
assassinate the younger ones.
they are also a much easier target.

Then keep a high star assassin at the city with the faction leader/heir.
Every time a younger general pops up it's very easy to put a knife in the poor boy's back.
Eventually the leader/Heir will die of old age.
