While celebrating the victory, he immediately summoned Guo Jia, Xun You, and the generals to discuss the next countermeasures.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fengxiao, Gongda, now that Yuan Shao has been removed, but Gongsun Zan is still eyeing us covetously, what good strategies do you have?\" Gu Yi’s eyes were like torches, sweeping over everyone in the tent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guo Jia smiled slightly and said with confidence: \"Although Gongsun Zan is strong, he is not without flaws. He is stubborn and self-willed, and internal contradictions are heavy. We can send envoys to write letters, on one hand showing weakness, and on the other hand secretly contacting those dissatisfied with his rule internally to alienate his internal affairs.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xun You nodded in agreement and added: \"At the same time, we should strengthen the defense line to prevent Gongsun Zan from attacking suddenly. And send elite troops to harass his border, making him unable to have peace and exhausted.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Gu Yi flashed a trace of appreciation: \"This plan is excellent! Since so, then follow the plan. Fengxiao, you are responsible for diplomacy and alienation; Gongda, you are responsible for military deployment and defense line reinforcement; the rest of the generals, each perform their duties, and there must be no mistakes.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone accepted the order and acted quickly. Guo Jia sent secret envoys carrying heavy money and secret letters to sneak into Gongsun Zan’s camp to secretly contact the generals dissatisfied with Gongsun Zan’s rule. And Xun You personally supervised the battle, reinforced the defense line, and sent elite troops to frequently harass Gongsun Zan’s border, making him exhausted to deal with it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gongsun Zan was indeed as Guo Jia expected, stubborn and self-willed, turning a blind eye to internal contradictions. Under the harassment of Gu Yi’s army, he sent troops to attack many times, but failed to achieve substantial results. Instead, because of frequent military actions, internal contradictions were further intensified.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just then, Guo Jia’s alienation plan also played a role. An important general under Gongsun Zan, because of dissatisfaction with his tyranny, secretly surrendered to Gu Yi. Once this news spread, Gongsun Zan’s army was suddenly in chaos, and morale was low.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing that the time was ripe, Gu Yi immediately led his army to launch a general attack on Gongsun Zan. Under the meticulous planning of Guo Jia and Xun You, the army was unstoppable, breaking through all the way, directly threatening Gongsun Zan’s lair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gongsun Zan was shocked and hurriedly gathered all his troops, attempting to resist Gu Yi’s army. However, his army had long lost its former combat effectiveness; facing Gu Yi’s fierce attack, it soon collapsed. Gongsun Zan was killed in the chaotic army, and his power was completely destroyed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In this battle, Gu Yi not only completely eliminated the threat in the north but also further expanded his sphere of influence. And the wisdom of Guo Jia and Xun You was verified again, becoming a story praised by people in the world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the battle, Gu Yi held a banquet in the army camp to celebrate and reward the meritorious officials. He raised his glass to Guo Jia and Xun You and said: \"Today’s victory is entirely due to the wisdom of Fengxiao and Gongda. It is a blessing from heaven that I have your help!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guo Jia and Xun You smiled at each other and raised their glasses together to respond: \"The Lord praises us too much; we are willing to work for the Lord and plot the great cause of the world together.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the destruction of Gongsun Zan, Gu Yi’s prestige reached an unprecedented height. The army under his command had high morale, the generals were all brave and good at fighting, and Guo Jia and Xun You became his left and right arms, making plans for him and creating a glorious era belonging to them together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the chaotic world did not end because of this. In the south of Gu Yi, there were other forces stirring, attempting to get a share of the pie. But Gu Yi knew that as long as Guo Jia and Xun You were by his side, he would have the confidence to deal with all challenges, unify this chaotic world, and let the world return to peace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The new dynasty was just established, and everything was waiting to be done. Gu Yi, the emperor who rose from the chaotic world, knew that the way to govern the country lay not only in military conquest but also in the hearts of the people and the long-term stability of the country. He often talked with Guo Jia and Xun You late at night to discuss the strategy of governing the country, striving to push the country toward a more prosperous and strong direction while stabilizing the situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lord, governing the country is like cooking small fresh fish; it needs careful adjustment and cannot be eager for quick success.\" Xun You gently stroked the bamboo slips on the case, his eyes flashing with the light of wisdom, \"The primary task now is to restore agricultural production, let the people have food to eat and clothes to wear, so that we can stabilize the people’s hearts.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guo Jia nodded in agreement: \"Gongda’s words are very true. At the same time, we also need to strengthen the construction of the legal system and severely punish corruption to correct the hearing. Only in this way can we establish the prestige of the court and win the trust of the people.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Gu Yi pondered for a moment and said: \"What you two said are all keys. But I think that to truly achieve long-term stability for the country, we also need to start with education, cultivate more people of insight, and reserve talents for the country’s development.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, a reform aimed at promoting education and popularizing culture quietly unfolded in the new dynasty. Gu Yi ordered the establishment of schools in various states and counties, recruited virtuous teachers, and taught cultural knowledge to the people for free. At the same time, he paid special attention to the cultivation of scientific and technological talents, encouraged invention and creation, and gave heavy rewards to those with special contributions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the assistance of Guo Jia and Xun You, the new dynasty’s educational reform achieved significant results. For a time, schools were everywhere, and the style of reading became popular. Many people who were originally illiterate, through receiving education, not only improved their own cultural literacy but also contributed their wisdom and strength to the country’s development.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, as the country gradually stabilized and prospered, some potential problems began to emerge. Some officials in the court began to breed a style of arrogance and extravagance, and local tyrants also took the opportunity to make trouble, threatening the ruling order of the new dynasty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Facing this situation, Gu Yi summoned Guo Jia and Xun You again to discuss countermeasures. \"Two beloved ministers, although the country is now on the right track, the crisis has not been completely lifted. I want to send you two to inspect the local areas separately, investigate and punish corruption, and quell rebellions. I wonder what you two think?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guo Jia and Xun You accepted the order without hesitation. \"We are willing to share worries for the Lord and will definitely not fail the mission.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, Guo Jia and Xun You each led a team of capable people and embarked on the journey of inspecting local areas. They went deep into the grassroots, understood the suffering of the people, investigated and punished batches of corrupt officials, and quelled rebellions in various places. Under their efforts, the ruling order of the new dynasty was effectively maintained, and the people’s lives became more stable day by day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During the inspection process, Guo Jia and Xun You also discovered another problem—although the country attached importance to agricultural development, due to backward technology, agricultural production efficiency was still low. To improve agricultural production efficiency, they began to try to promote advanced agricultural technologies, such as improving farm tools and introducing new varieties. At the same time, they also encouraged farmers to build water conservancy projects, improve irrigation conditions, and increase the yield of farmland.\u003C\u002Fp>",1391,"2026-06-16T10:17:29.323Z","2026-06-16T10:29:14.565Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","9cf00b375d7723cfb2e7980ced6ff573fe69929e2d7152f02c94d953988f637f","three-kingdoms-humiliated-by-the-coalition-i-def-chapter-1009","three-kingdoms-humiliated-by-the-coalition-i-def-chapter-1007",1103,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthree-kingdoms-humiliated-by-the-coalition-i-def-cover.jpg"]
