The enemies are the Dorians and Troy.
The conflict between the Mycenaeans and Troy, often depicted in Greek mythology through the Trojan War, was primarily driven by competition over trade routes and resources. The strategic location of Troy, which controlled access to the Dardanelles, made it a valuable asset for trade in the region. Additionally, the abduction of Helen, wife of the Mycenaean king Menelaus, by Paris of Troy served as a catalyst for war, igniting existing tensions and ambitions of various Greek leaders to unite against Troy. These factors combined to create a volatile situation that ultimately led to the protracted conflict.
The Mycenaeans were located in Greece.
That is an embellishment provided by the poets who sang the story of the war. A better guess is that the capture of Troy was the richest prize in a ten-year looting expedition by the Achaeans (Greeks) along the coast of Asia Minor.

Agamemnon led the Mycenaeans. By agreement of the other war lords, he also led the expedition against Troy.
The gift given to the Trojans was the famous wooden horse, known as the Trojan Horse. The Mycenaeans, pretending to retreat, left this large horse outside the gates of Troy as a deceptive offering. The Trojans brought it inside the city, unaware that it was filled with Greek soldiers hidden inside. This cunning strategy ultimately allowed the Mycenaeans to enter Troy and lead to the city's downfall.
The Mycenaeans, or in other words, the Greeks, won the Trojan War by capturing the city, burning it and enslaving the survivors.

Troy destroyed, and the loot and slaves taken back to Greece. And the Dorian Greeks and Sea peoples descended on Greece and the Mycenaeans displaced.
