The third leader immediately sensed something was wrong. To be able to ambush so many people, they must have poisoned the drinks or food; otherwise, this wouldn't have happened.
He quickly checked his elder brothers' pulses; they seemed to be alright, just unconscious. He took the water that had been brought and splashed it on their faces, but they still didn't react; it was clear they had been drugged with a strong sedative.
