Colonel Mackenzie and his men capture three outlaws after a desperate gunfight that wounds half the troopers and most of their horses. In order to return to Fort Davis, they must walk across 150 miles of drought-scorched territory while the remaining bandits wait for an opportunity to pounce, rescue their men and wipe out the small patrol.
