A peon named Cuchillo is seen stealing a loaf of bread and almost ends up being shot by a fire squad about to execute a revolutionary. Cuchillo manages to escape the hectic scene and jumps on his horse and rides away. After stealing a precious watch he's thrown in jail, where he happens to be sharing a cell with a revolutionary poet called Ramirez, who offers him $100 to break him out and flee with him to Texas, where he has hidden a sum of $300,000. With the money, Ramirez wants to finance the Revolution against Diaz. Cuchillo goes along with the escape plan, but when the two men arrive in a village near the border, they are captured by the revolutionary bandit Reza. Ramirez is killed, but in his dying moments, he hands over a newspaper to Cuchillo, telling him that it's a clue as to where the treasure is hidden. Cuchillo now heads for Texas. Also interested in the gold, are two warring revolutionary factions, an American sheriff, Daniel Cassidy, who’s now turned bounty hunter, two French federal agents and a Salvation Army missionary named Penny Bannington. There's also his fiancée Dolores, who desperately wants to marry him, even though he's a pig. In the end Cassidy and Cuchillo team-up to turn the tide in their favor and Cuchillo ends up a hero of the revolution.
