Gou Jia still got a few years left. He was still around as Cao Cao was finishing up Yuan Shao's sons, but died mid way during the march toward north.


With all due respect, while battle of Guan Du was a pivotal, the reason reason for the fall of Yuan clan was the death of Yuan Shao and the subsequent succession feud within the clan. Because even after the his win in Guan Du, Cao Cao didn't dare to march north during the 2-3 years Yuan Shao was still alive.
