At the end of the Civil War, taking advantage of the chaos that reigns throughout the land, a band of ex-Confederate soldiers dominates the territory. When Acquasanta Joe learns that his savings have gone up in smoke due to a robbery carried out by the outlaw gang, he goes on their trail in an effort to recoup his money and put an end to their lawlessness. Rivalry within the gang complicates things for Joe as well as the Union Army, who is also interested in stopping the outlaws.
