Drifter Ted Beaubien, living by the rule “shoot to kill,” is captured during the 1926 Chinese Civil War and forced to watch his girlfriend’s execution. He escapes, swears revenge, and embarks on a perilous mission to buy guns abroad and smuggle them home. Returning to a destitute hometown, he finds his mother and brother penniless.
