Ballad of a Gunman

When the time has come for the safe to open, Chiuchi attacks the town as a diversionary tactic and lures the guards away.

Then El Bedoja carries out the actual strike with his own gang, taking the now scarcely protected bank by surprise.

El Bedoja and his men get away with a great deal of booty and bring a wounded accomplice to a farm where they coerce a woman into removing a bullet.

They discover that the criminal siblings hide in an old mine and hire an old miner to close the entrance with dynamite.

Hud wants to keep El Bedoja alive because he needs him as a witness to correct a miscarriage of justice.
