I think I've been able to get what you're looking for, by using a simple Process Flow to control the loading and unloading. First I created a Group with your AGVs in it, and then I set the logic of the two processors to push the items to two Lists (one for each processor). Then in the Process Flow, I just set up a source to generate tokens equal to the number of AGVs, and have them be acquired as a resource, pull the items from a list, and then unload those items.

Here is the example: (I removed the Model Background to reduce the space.)
