Who do I speak to when?

Hypothetical question but I maybe doing a route that will involve this in a few weeks to answers please:

If I was heading west to east, and there was a airfield just to the west of a Military field with MATZ zone right next to the civil airfields zone. I can't get above 2000 ft and I need to transit through the civil field and the MATZ.

Soo as I was tought to ask for Matz penetration while still a decent way out, in this scenario would I speak to the military, tell them what I want, then change to the civil airfield while I went through his zone then change backthe MATZ freq,

OR

Should I speak to the civil airfield on the run-up to it and as soon as I'm clear of him flick over the MATZ freq - which would mean I'm already on the edge of his zone, BUT you don't strictly need permission to go through a MATZ do you so he couldn't really tell me to clear off could he?
