The second part of Armageddon 2419 A.D. The Airlords of Han, was printed in the March 1929 issue of Amazing Stories.
The story's enemy force, the Han, were simply called Mongols in the newspaper comics, but in the concluding chapter of Airlords, a much older Tony Rogers speculates that the Han and their advanced technology may have been of extraterrestrial origin.

Buck began life as Anthony Rogers, in Nowlan's first published story, "Armageddon 2419 AD.," and its sequel, "Airlords of Han," quickly became a phenomenon that popularized science fiction in the first half of the twentieth century in the same way that Star Trek and Star Wars popularized it in the second half.
But until now, Nowlan's other science fiction stories have been forgotten in the wake of Buck's immense popularity.
