The Lord of the Rings is a book (or trilogy of books depending on your viewpoint). The Hobbit is not part of it.
You could argue that The Hobbit is the beginning of Middle Earth because it was the first written but you still can't say that The Hobbit is the beginning of the LotR.

New Question:
Describe Theoden's journey to the Battle of the Pelennor Fields.
Theoden had to go through the Druaden Forest, and talk to the wild men lead by Ghan Buri Ghan. He found a shortcut to the battle and also found the section of the Rammas facing toward him torn down by the forces of the EVIL LORD SAURON 😉. From there he was able to go directly to the city.
