Triggering GPIO of a ESP8266 webserver from another ESP8266

I guess I am most confused on how to get ESP-3 (the client) to ask ESP-1 (server) for the request of lets say IPADDRESS/GPIO/ON? On all the examples I see are like this

 Serial.printf("\n[Connecting to %s ... ", host);
  if (client.connect(host, 80))
  {
    Serial.println("connected]");

    Serial.println("[Sending a request]");
    client.print(String("GET /") + " HTTP/1.1\r\n" +
                 "Host: " + host + "\r\n" +
                 "Connection: close\r\n" +
                 "\r\n"
                );

    Serial.println("[Response:]");
    while (client.connected())
    {
      if (client.available())
      {
        String line = client.readStringUntil('\n');
        Serial.println(line);
      }
    }
    client.stop();
    Serial.println("\n[Disconnected]");
  }
  else
  {
    Serial.println("connection failed!]");
    client.stop();
  }
  delay(5000);

}

Where would I add the requested url?
