The cannons have a LOT less HP than the servants do that are working on them. Also, the cannons deal more damage. If you take out the cannon first, its smooth sailing.
As a rogue, if you are having trouble with these, kill the cannon as fast as you can and then vanish without killing the servant... Amounts to about 1 kill per 5 minutes :p
ALSO, they have a 4-5 minute respawn timer while the servants working on them have a 15+ minute respawn timer, so if you are having trouble soloing, just camp 1.

What to do
Description
Now we focus on the second target - Forge Camp: Rage. It lies just west of Mageddon. Trouble is, the demons have a number of fel cannons aimed straight at the Horde's outpost of Thrallmar! Though I can scarcely believe it, we actually need the Horde to help us hold the line at the Dark Portal. We can't afford to let Thrallmar fall. You've got to destroy these cannons before the Legion pulverizes our allies!

Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Disruption - Forge Camp: Mageddon
Pay close attention, <name>. We've been surveying the Legion camps that lie along the ridge ahead. We have reason to believe that these so-called 'Forge Camps' are where the demons are constructing those blasted Fel Reavers. You can see the closest target, Forge Camp: Mageddon, to the west.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Invasion Point: Annihilator
Well, we've located the Legion's final base on the ridge - Invasion Point: Annihilator. It lies northwest of Forge Camp: Rage - and it houses a warp-portal through which the Legion has been drawing its reinforcements! You've got to close that portal to prevent any more demons from coming through.
