Who on king duncans side during the war in Macbeth?

The play starts with a war between Scotland and Norway. The Norwegians have attacked in two places: in the north and in the south. In the North the Norwegians are aided by the Scottish traitor Macdonweald, and some Irish "kerns and gallowglasses." The Scottish force, led by Macbeth and Banquo and including Duncan's son Malcolm meets them at a place called Forres. The battle is described by the bloody sergeant. Meanwhile, hundreds of miles to the south, a different Norwegian army led by the Norwegian king, assisted by the Scottish traitor The Thane of Cawdor, attacks Fife but is defeated by a Scottish force led by a man known only as "Bellona's bridegroom". The Thane of Ross rides north and describes this battle to Duncan, who is at Forres. Between the two battles, all the Scotsmen are on Duncan's side except the two traitors Macdonweald (who is bisected by Macbeth) and the Thane of Cawdor (who is captured by "Bellona's bridegroom").
