Unhappy Bad Car Battery Corrosion Need Help/Advice - PICS INSIDE

Recently my A4 would not start so I popped the hood to check everything out.
I noticed tons of blue/white corrosion over the positive terminal so I cleaned most of it off today with baking soda and water but the terminal is still stuck on the battery like superglue.
The cable also has bad corrosion growing in/on it.

One of the red wires covered with black split wire loom broke off that was connected to the battery(can some please help me identify these)
