A note from his blood brother Winnetou calls Old Shatterhand to the desolate Llano Estacado. The Comanche are on the warpath and with hundreds of warriors plan to attack Bloody Fox' secret oasis hideaway in the desert. During his ride Old Shatterhand crosses paths with Old Wabble, the legendary 'king of the cowboys' and together they rescue Old Surehand from the clutches of the enemy Indians. Old Shatterhand realises that Old Surehand is at the centre of a desperate secret when he has an eerie encounter with an insane squaw in Kaam-Kulano. The adventure turns complicated when a detachment of mounted white soldiers becomes involved, but together Winnetou, Old Shatterhand, Old Surehand, and Bloody Fox repel the Comanche attack by cunning and subterfuge. When the cactus trap falls shut behind the enemy Indians, a new friend joins them-Apanatshka, a mysterious Comanche chief; but the other companion, Old Wabble, turns from friend to foe when a scoundrel known as the 'general' appears in the oasis.

Winnetou and Old Shatterhand separated from Old Surehand and Apanatshka when the 'general' and Old Wabble stole their precious weapons, the silver rifle, the Henry rifle and the bear killer. In the meantime, Old Surehand is on a mission of his own; when Shatterhand visits banker Wallace in Jefferson City, he learns that his new friend is on his way to the Rocky Mountains. The blood brothers also head for the Rockies in pursuit of villains and robbers. Winnetou and Old Shatterhand ride with Dick Hammerdull and Pitt Holbers, the robbers' victims, as well as detective Treskow, who has unfinished business with a dangerous villain. While spying on enemy Osage Indians, Old Shatterhand saves Apanatshka from certain death. The mystery surrounding Old Surehand deepens when another enigmatic and elusive red Indian, Kolma Putshi, becomes involved in the pursuit. As the drama nears its end at Devils Head, the 'general' is unmasked.
