Thanks to how Monkey Cage works, if it triggers multiple times at once, you still get the tokens after its sacrificed to the first resolving trigger.

So, get the Cage down when your opponent can't interfere by dropping their own creature. Then, cast Hellion Eruption.

For an example, you have five 1/1 goblin tokens.
Sacrificing them to the Hellion Eruption, you now have five 4/4 hellion tokens. The Monkey Cage triggers five times, giving you four tokens per trigger, for a total of twenty 2/2 monkeys, to go with your five hellions.

Five total power on the field, now sixty total power.

I hate to crush your dream of monkeys in hell but the cage looks at converted mana cost and your tokens dont have one
