please explain the point of your project. a bigger hammer usually works but it may affect your end result.

It looks like sheet-roc with plaster finish. Like Mike asked, what are you trying to accomplish? If its just a repair to that part of the wall you can take a grinder or a sawzall and cut the top and bottom of the mesh corner bead. Then get some channel locks and start heaving it out. Mind you, the adjacent wall will also need to repaired

It's a bathroom window frame. The drywall underneath was wet and stayed wet apparently, so the two hard layers on top of the drywall started cracking at the bottom. I pulled the cracked stuff off and found another layer that was painted yellow, and the dry wall. I am planning on just pulling all that
off and put up new drywall and repaint.

I'm hitting it pretty hard and it's just bouncing off. The drywall is coming off easy. It's getting through those two layers of whatever that is hard.

I was able to pull the whole piece off and now I'm going to replace the drywall.

well at this point looks like you need to redo the return, like others said remove that piece.

You will have to put in new pieces and redo the corners.

I was able to take off those pieces on both sides of the window and replaced the drywall. For a first timer, I don't think it looks too bad. Better than it did before, for sure. When I'm all done, I'll come back and post photos.
Thanks for your help.
