Seems like your model might be different, there should be 4 headers. In the one I have, they look like this: https://blog.express-it.nl/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/20190131_130729-2-2.jpg

Your model have connections on the back side of ESP, same as mine do. Here is some good reference: https://github.com/fritz-smh/yi-hack/issues/118#issuecomment-326738029 You will need to solder wires to contacts and use serial-to-usb adapter. I have same board, i only used 3 wires (gnd, tx, rx) and power was supplied via usb port. Hope this helps.
