Suggest you draw some diagrams and review related docs

Suggested Serial Connectivity
TOP-SIDE-XBEE-2 = ZED-UART2-RX = LORA-SERIAL-TXD
TOP-SIDE-XBEE-3 = ZED-UART2-TX = LORA-SERIAL-RXD
TOP-SIDE-XBEE-10 = GND = LORA-SERIAL-GND

Figure your 3.3V and 5V supplies

Perhaps initially work with the radios, establish a working link, configure so that you get a transparent transport of data end-to-end.

The ZED-F9P would prefer you use UART2 for the RTCM3 data, unless you plan on having some other MCU board act as an intermediary.
