Did they exist? Yes, they did. But it's not the same idea as British canons (the giant metal thing on wheels with canon balls inside).

A canon back then was a tube with a fire cracker at the end. There is a wick protruding from the side of the tube (usually made of bamboo), which leads to gunpowder inside.

First, soldiers positioned the canon to where they want it fired, then they lit the wick and watched it go!
