You hammered the bolts? I’m no expert but I’m pretty sure bolts are never meant to be hammered. Only nails get hammered. You probably broke the anchors, or plugs as you called them. I could be wrong though.

It was just to get them to push through the plaster and gap and into the brick before then scrwing them in for a tight fit.

You get bolts for brick and concrete that are designed to be hammered in first.

Trubolts and Thunderbolts are a couple of examples.
