Interesting, I've never had such an aggressive experience from the AI. Was this a game versus human players?

1. Ye olde spy network

Add spies. Add more spies. Always have super kick-A spies surrounding your generals. Keep generals inside cities and have them defend against several spies and assassins sucessfully to build their Anti-Spy and Anti-Assassin attributes.

2. Traits, traits, traits

Having your own agents perform many successful or attempted spy and assassin missions increases your factionleader's stats. Getting Spymaster or Master of Assassins as traits or retinue greatly helps.

3. Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum

Spies and Assassins and Inquisitors can't swim. Get on a boat and dock it in your harbor (when there are enemy fleets in sight) and otherwise put these boats out to sea. Watch out for storms, though. And don't let the enemy navy sink you!

4. The proven Askthepizzaguy Method:

Destroy the faction in question with your armies as soon as possible. They can't produce agents when their cities are burnt to the ground, riddled with cannon fire.
