After successfully selling a herd of cattle that he drove from Mexico to the States for $ 86,000, Bob Morgan dies of a heart attack. He entrusts the money to his foreman Frank Pike, who is supposed to deliver it to Morgan 's wife Linda , who lives in Sonora . During his ride there, Pike is pursued by the bounty hunter Peter Kiefer, who hires a number of outlaws to support him and, after their failure, also makes a pact with the bandit leader Calvera and his gang in order to get to his goal.
In contrast, Pike finds an ally in Tyree, a gunslinger and card shark. When the two of the former prostitutes save Catherine the life, she pretends to steal the money bag out of gratitude and thereby exposes herself to the bandits' machine gun fire. Before the final, decisive fight, Pike entrusts the money to little Chico; with Tyree he retreats to an abandoned gold mine, which they want to blow up as soon as the gangsters have penetrated. Miraculously, Pike and Tyree survive the explosion and are swept into a river. Your journey to Sonora can continue.
