I highly doubt this would be lore... Easterlings (Chinese) were never mentioned to have cannons. Saruman's army was the only evil force to have explosives. If Easterlings had cannons and stuff, it would have cetainly been used in a battle like the Seige of Minas Tirith, if not that, then Tolkien would have certainly said something.
