"Doubly redoubled strokes upon the foe", in other words they fought on harder. Act 1, scene 2
Macbeth turns them against Banquo by reminding them that they have been placed inferior in position by Banquo and that they should not let him get a way with it. Second he tells them that Banquo is a threat to himself as king and therefore should be rid of.
He wants to prevent Banquo's son from becoming king as the witches predicted (Apex)
after the battle, the three witches greet Macbeth by calling him by three titles: Thane of Glamis Thane of Cawdor King thereafter
The conversation he had with the murderers show that he is still trying to cloak his crime under a veneer of political necessity, by suggesting that the murderers have good reason to hate Banquo and wish him dead. In reality they are hired murderers, who would kill anyone if they were paid to do it. They are quite happy to attempt to kill Fleance, who is obviously not their enemy. So, what is Macbeth on about? He is trying to justify the murder to himself, because he still has enough conscience to think that it is wrong to kill his friend just because his decendants might become kings someday.
Her biggest enemy was herself, which is why she committed suicide.
In Act 3 of William Shakespeare's "Macbeth," Macbeth's worst enemy is arguably Banquo. Macbeth sees Banquo as a threat to his newly gained power because of the witches' prophecy that Banquo's descendants will inherit the throne. Macbeth becomes obsessed with eliminating this potential threat, leading to Banquo's murder.
Macbeth tells the hired killers that Banquo is their enemy, as he suspects Banquo poses a threat to his throne and that Banquo is responsible for their current hardships. By planting these ideas in the killers' minds, Macbeth ensures they view Banquo as an obstacle that needs to be removed.
*Banquo. Macbeth's best friend is Banquo, but he is also Macbeth's enemy. After the meeting with the witches, Macbeth finds out that he will become the Thane of Cawdor and the King of Scotland. Eventually, he achieves both of these prophecies. Banquo, Macbeth, and Lady Macbeth are the only people that know about the witches. Banquo becomes suspicious of Macbeth because Macbeth fulfills the prophecy after King Duncan is murdered, and Macbeth acknowledges this fact. Basically, Macbeth doesn't trust Banquo.
"To be thus is nothing, but to be safely thus." Macbeth is, as he predicted he would be, uncertain of his kingship because it was obtained by violence. "Our fears in Banquo stick deep" He is afraid that Banquo might become an enemy to him.
Macbeth turns them against Banquo by reminding them that they have been placed inferior in position by Banquo and that they should not let him get a way with it. Second he tells them that Banquo is a threat to himself as king and therefore should be rid of.
To ensure the murderers will 'dispatch' (kill) Banquo, Macbeth tells them, 'Banquo was your enemy, So he is mine'. Basically, you do not like Banquo and therefore, neither do I. So I encourage you to kill him. It was very manipulative of Macbeth to say this to the murderers. He also threatens their manhood, compares them to dogs and applies various other tactics so he can feel certain they will kill Banquo and Banquo's son, Fleance.

Macduff presents a particularly unpleasant picture of what will happen to Macbeth if he is captured alive.
No, Banquo wasn't responsible for his own death. It was that unfortunate case of being in the wrong place at the wrong time and knowing the wrong person at the wrong time. His friend and fellow General Macbeth [d. August 15, 1057] was ragingly ambitious. Macbeth accepted the witches' predictions of his promotions to Thane of Cawdor and to King as the facts of his life, the rights to which he was entitled, and the shape of his destiny. He wanted to consolidate his rule. The minute he learned that Banquo's family line ultimately would take over the throne, Macbeth turned his friend into an enemy to be eliminated as soon as possible.

The bleeding sergeant is used to reveal Macbeth's previous record of brave loyalty to king and country in "Macbeth" by William Shakespeare (Baptized April 26, 1564 - April 23, 1616).Specifically, Macbeth can be viewed as a good, courageous character whose fatal flaws of ambition and manipulability turn him to evil. The sergeant therefore discusses Macbeth's bravekilling of the traitor Macdonwald and then of Banquo's and Macbeth's winning victory in a bloody battle against Norwegian invaders and Scottish collaborators. In essence, the sergeant indicates that when the going gets tough, Captains Banquo and Macbeth get going. In fact, he mentions Macbeth's efforts as "doubly redoubled" in the face of a resupplied, renewed, ferocious enemy.
