The movie opens with a group of notorious outlaws led by Roy King (Lee Van Cleef) who are making their way through the desert towards the Mexican border.

They are smart, quick-witted, and know how to handle themselves in any situation. However, their plans go awry when they find themselves caught up in the Mexican Revolution, with warring factions fighting each other for control of the country.

While on their way to the bank, they encounter a young revolutionary named Alicia (Gina Lollobrigida), who is also heading to the bank to retrieve some ammunition for her fellow soldiers. King, who is always on the lookout for a good opportunity, convinces Alicia to join them on their mission by promising to donate the money to the Revolution. Although initially hesitant, Alicia eventually agrees, and the group sets off towards the bank.

As they journey towards the bank, they encounter numerous obstacles like the Mexican army, rival factions of the revolutionaries, and other outlaws. Along the way, they also pick up another passenger named General Ubarte (James Mason), who is a former member of the revolution but has since abandoned his comrades and is now on the run. Ubarte proves to be a valuable asset to the group as he knows the layout of the bank and has inside information that can help them in their heist.

However, as the group reaches the bank, they discover that it is heavily guarded, and they will need to devise a plan if they are to succeed. The gang comes up with several schemes, but they all seem to fail, leading to a deadly showdown between King and the Mexican army. Even in the face of danger, King remains calm and collected, and with the help of his gang members and Ubarte, they are able to complete the heist.

But just when they think they have succeeded, a twist of fate changes everything, and they find themselves on the run yet again. What follows is a thrilling chase as they try to outrun the Mexican army, the revolutionaries, and other outlaws, all while trying to hold on to the loot.
