Question subject and predicate

Let's not fight with him.


How to identify subject and predicate in this sentence?
Could you isolate `subject and predicate' in this sentence for me?

Hi, Gary,
I think there is no subject in the Imperative - at all.
Regards.

Thanks Humble.

That I know.

But,

Let see example :

Please excuse me sir. (Here: subject `you' is understood)

Similarly,

Let's not fight with him.

(Here which subject is understood?) or somethng else?
