                                    ฝ่ายเกียวเสง   ตันกี๋  ลุยป๊ก   ตันหลัน   ซึ่งเตียวหุนให้ไปตีหัวเมืองทั้งปวงนั้น
                                                      ครั้นรู้ว่าทัพหลวงแตกแล้ว   ก็ยกกลับไปเมืองลำหยง


                                       ลิโป้  กวนอู  หันเซียม  เอียวฮอง   ก็พากันเข้าไปเมืองชีจิ๋ว
          ลิโป้จึงให้แต่งโต๊ะเลี้ยงทหารทั้งปวง   แล้วก็แจกเงินทองเสื้อผ้าแก่ทหารกวนอู  หันเซียม  เอียวฮอง  เป็นอันมาก
          ครั้นเวลาเช้ากวนอูก็ลาลิโป้กลับไปเมืองอิจิ๋ว    ลิโป้จึงคิดว่าจะตั้งหันเซียมให้ไปรักษาเมืองกินโต๋   ให้เอียวฮอง

          ไปรักษาเมืองลองเอี๋ย    ลิโป้จึงทำเป็นปรึกษาทหารทั้งปวงว่า  หันเซียมเอียวฮองมีความชอบต่อเรา

          เราจะเลี้ยงไว้ในเมืองชีจิ๋วนี้หรือๆ จะให้ไปอยู่รักษาเมืองอันใด


                                       ตันกุ๋ยจึงว่า  หันเซียมเอียวฮองนี้  เดิมตั้งซ่องสุมพรรคพวกอยู่ตำบลซัวตั๋งฝ่ายตะวันออก 

          ขอท่านแต่งให้หันเซียมเอียวฮองไปอยู่เมืองกินโต๋เมืองลองเอี๋ย   สมัครพรรคพวกของหันเซียมเอียวฮองรู้ก็จะพากัน

          เข้ามาอยู่กับหันเซียมเอียวฮองบ้านเมืองก็จะบริบูรณ์ขึ้น   ลิโป้จึงให้หันเซียมเอียวฮองไปรักษาเมืองตามคำตันกุ๋ยว่า

          แล้วสั่งเอียวฮองหันเซียมให้คิดอ่านเกลี้ยกล่อมผู้คนไว้ให้มั่งคั่ง   แม้นเราจะมีธุระสิ่งใดจะให้หนังสือไปถึงท่าน

          หันเซียมเอียวฮองก็ลาไปรักษาเมืองตามลิโป้สั่ง   ที่ปรึกษาแลทหารทั้งปวงต่างคนก็ลาลิโป้ไปบ้าน


                                       ฝ่ายตันเต๋งกลับมาบ้านแล้วจึงว่าแก่บิดาว่า   หันเซียมเอียวฮองสองคนนี้ถ้าอยู่ในเมืองชีจิ๋ว
          เมื่อเราจะทำการกับลิโป้จะได้อาศัยเป็นกำลัง   เหตุไฉนบิดาจึงปรึกษาให้ไปอยู่เมืองอื่น    ตันกุ๋ยจึงว่า

          หันเซียมเอียวฮองนี้เป็นคนไม่ยั่งยืนจะไว้ใจมิได้    แม้อยู่ในเมืองชีจิ๋วนานไปลิโป้เลี้ยงดูถึงขนาด 

          หันเซียมเอียวฮองก็จะเป็นใจด้วยลิโป้   เห็นเราจะทำการมิสะดวก    ตันเต๋งเห็นชอบด้วย 

          จึงว่าความคิดของบิดานี้ดีนักข้าพเจ้าคิดมิถึง   แล้วตันเต๋งก็ลาตันกุ๋ยมาที่อยู่


                                       ฝ่ายอ้วนสุดเสียทหารแลสิ่งของแก่ลิโป้เป็นอันมาก   ก็คิดแค้นอยู่มิได้ขาด
          จึงให้ทหารถือหนังสือไปหาซุนเซ็ก  ณ  เมืองกังตั๋ง   ขอทหารยกมาช่วยแก้แค้นลิโป้  

          ซุนเซ็กได้ยินดังนั้นก็ด่าอ้วนสุดว่า   ฉ้อเอาตราหยกของกูไว้  แล้วคิดขบถตั้งตัวเป็นเจ้า  กูคิดจะทำร้ายมันอีก

          บัดนี้กลับมาขอกองทัพอีกเล่า    แล้วตอบไปแก่ทหารอ้วนสุดว่า  ซึ่งนายมึงให้มาขอกองทัพนั้นกูมิได้ให้ 

          กูจะยกทหารไปตีเมืองลำหยงแก้แค้นของกูอีก


                                               ผู้ถือหนังสือก็ลาซุนเซ็กกลับมาบอกเนื้อความแก่อ้วนสุดๆ จึงด่าซุนเซ็กว่า
                                                       อ้ายเด็กน้ำนมยังมิทันพ้นปาก   มันจองหองเจรจาว่าจะรบกับกู

                                                                   กูจะไปตีเมืองกังตั๋งจับตัวอ้ายซุนเซ็กให้จงได้

                                                                           ว่าแล้วอ้วนสุดก็สั่งให้เตรียมทหาร


                                    เอียวไต้เจียงที่ปรึกษาจึงว่าแก่อ้วนสุดว่า   เรายกไปตีเมืองชีจิ๋วพึ่งกลับมาถึง

        ทหารทั้งปวงยังอิดโรยอยู่   แลท่านจะยกไปตีเมืองกังตั๋งนั้นซุนเซ็กก็มีฝีมือ   ทหารก็เข้มแข็ง   เห็นจะเสียทีแก่เขา

                                                               อ้วนสุดเห็นชอบด้วยก็ให้งดกองทัพไว้


                                        ฝ่ายซุนเซ็กครั้นคนถือหนังสือกลับไปแล้ว   คิดเกรงว่าอ้วนสุดจะยกทัพมา
          จึงเกณฑ์ทหารตั้งค่ายคอยรับอยู่ปากคลองเมืองกังตั๋ง    พอโจโฉให้หนังสือมาถึงซุนเซ็กเป็นใจความว่า 

          ตั้งให้ซุนเซ็กเป็นเจ้าเมืองห้อยแขแล้วให้ยกไปตีอ้วนสุด  ณ  เมืองลำหยง    ซุนเซ็กมีความยินดีจึงปรึกษาทหาร

          ทั้งปวงว่า   เราจะยกกองทัพไปตีเมืองลำหยง


                                        เตียวเจียวจึงว่า  เมืองลำหยงนั้นข้าวปลาอาหารก็บริบูรณ์    ผู้คนก็มั่งคั่ง
          ท่านอย่าเพิ่งดูหมิ่น   ขอให้ท่านมีหนังสือไปถึงโจโฉ   ให้โจโฉยกกองทัพมาตีด้านหน้า   เราจึงยกไปตีกระหนาบหลัง

          เห็นอ้วนสุดจะเสียแก่เราเป็นมั่นคง     ซุนเซ็กเห็นชอบด้วย  จึงให้ทหารถือหนังสือขึ้นไปเมืองฮูโต๋ตามคำเตียวเจียวว่า

                                                         ฟริตจอฟ   คาปรา     นักฟิสิกส์ชื่อดังของโลก   รุ่นหลังไอน์สไตน์
                                กล่าวไว้อย่างมีความหมายว่า  “ทฤษฎีควอนตัมและทฤษฎีสัมพัทธภาพ
                     ได้ทำให้ความเข้าใจเกี่ยวกับโลกของเราคล้ายคลึงกับความเข้าใจของชาวพุทธและเต๋า
                     และยิ่งคล้ายคลึงมากขึ้นไปอีกเมื่อมีการรวมเอาสองทฤษฎีนี้
                     มาใช้อธิบายปรากฏการณ์ของอนุภาคที่เล็กมากๆ จนไม่สามารถมองเห็นด้วยกล้องจุลทรรศน์
                     นั่นคืออธิบายคุณสมบัติและปฏิกิริยาของอนุภาคที่เล็กกว่าอะตอม
                     ซึ่งอนุภาคเหล่านั้นเป็นองค์ประกอบของสสารทุกชนิดบนโลกนี้
                     เราพบว่า  อนุภาคเหล่านี้มีความไม่เที่ยง   แปรเปลี่ยนไปตลอดเวลา  และไม่มีตัวตนที่แท้
                     ซึ่งคล้ายคลึงอย่างยิ่งกับหลักแห่งอนิจจัง   ทุกขัง   อนัตตา”



                                               ทฤษฎีควอนตัม      นำเสนอโดย  มักซ์   พลังค์
                      ค้นพบว่ารังสีของแสงที่เปล่งออกมามีลักษณะเป็นกลุ่มๆ ซึ่งประกอบด้วยหน่วยเล็กๆ 
                      เรียกว่าควอนตัม  (quantum)     ขนาดของควอนตัมขึ้นอยู่กับขนาดของความถี่
                      ซึ่งในภายหลังไอน์สไตน์ได้เรียกควอนตัมของแสงว่าโฟตอน
                      เขาสามารถพิสูจน์ได้อย่างแจ่มชัดว่า  คลื่นแสงก็มีคุณสมบัติเป็นอนุภาค
                      ทฤษฎีนี้เป็นหัวใจของฟิสิกส์ยุคใหม่   ซึ่งถือว่าคลื่น  เช่น  คลื่นวิทยุ   คลื่นแสง   คลื่นความโน้มถ่วง  ฯลฯ

                      ทั้งหลายเหล่านี้   ล้วนสามารถทำตัวเป็นอนุภาคได้
                      ในทางกลับกัน  อนุภาค เช่น  อิเล็กตรอน   โปรตอน   หรือแม้แต่ร่างกายของมนุษย์
                      ต่างก็สามารถเปลี่ยนคุณสมบัติเป็นคลื่นได้
                      ดังนั้น  ทุกสิ่งทุกอย่างบนโลกนี้ไม่สามารถคาดการณ์ได้อย่างชัดเจน
                      เพราะความจริงแท้แล้วมันสามารถเปลี่ยนกลับไปกลับมาระหว่างคุณสมบัติของคลื่นกับอนุภาค
