PLEASE CORRECT ME IF I AM WRONG

-1- It seems like the 10Ah battery has 14Awg wires inside so i cannot connect into those wires directly
.
-2- Solution A - I can replace the wires inside the 10 Awg battery and replace the 4 blade, with 12Awg and a new 4blade, and create a Y with X60...

I want to summarize so far
==================
-1-removing the putty and soldering those thick terminals is an option but the soldering thick metal can heat up and damage other things in the controller ( the wires in the controller are VERY thin). Then i would need a specific controller from...
Hhmmmm i did not think about plugging the 20Ah battery in the 10Ah battery to charge it ... that seems to be ok right ? And yes, i am using thicker gauge wires ... i think i bought 12 awg ....
I am looking for solutions not criticism or coulda shoulda ....
- The bike has a 48V 10Ah battery that connect with a 4 pin connector .
- I bought a rear rack with a 48V 20Ah battery.
- My idea was to connect them in parallel , yes, i know they will discharge disproportionally
- The problem is...
