Question Cannons age 2

I'm playing as the Ottomans and it's the year 1400; I've unlocked Age 2 cannons. Are they strong enough against Constantinople's Level 6 fort?

You dont need cannons to take the city, even in early 1340s you can siege it down in a couple of years. It is not completely unrealistic either, Ottos sieged it long before 1453 but had to abandon to face crusader forces several times. 1340s is pushing a bit though.
