Get the Halabi book, and work through it. Really. It's worth every
cent (and more).

There is no other way to get a BGP setup that will do what you want than
"understanding how BGP works". You need this for troubleshooting if it
doesn't, for load-balancing, to avoid that you don't break *other*
people's networks, and so on.

BGP can't be set up by asking people for sample configurations.
