What If Robb Stark and Grey Wind Ambushed Tywin Lannister at the Green Fork

What if Robb Stark and Grey Wind ambushed Tywin Lannister at the Green Fork? When the Lannister armies march into the Riverlands, Robb refuses to divide his host. He takes his northern riders and Grey Wind straight into Tywin's column under cover of dark, falls upon the camp before alarms can sound, and traps Tywin at the ford. Tywin is taken alive. With Tywin captive, Robb holds the hostage he needs to trade for Lord Eddard Stark and Sansa in King's Landing. Cersei and Tyrion struggle to steady the capital while Stannis Baratheon gathers his fleet. Then Balon Greyjoy turns his longships toward Winterfell. Caught between two fronts, Robb has to keep his lords together if his family is to survive. Taking Tywin at the Green Fork halts the Lannister host before the fighting can spread across the Riverlands. Tywin rides north in irons, and the war begins on Robb's terms.
