In 207, when 曹操 marched against the 乌桓 in the far northeast, Guo Jia urged him to leave the baggage behind and ride light to strike before the enemy was ready, since 兵贵神速, 'speed is what counts in war'. The attack succeeded, but he fell ill and died on the way back.

After his defeat at 赤壁 the next year, Cao Cao is said to have wept that if Fengxiao were still alive he would never have come to this. 奉孝 was Guo Jia's courtesy name.
