Let's and let us

"let us go"
"let's go"

Are these sentences have different meaning?

I think "let us go" is asking for permission
And "let's go" is asking someone to go together

But as far as I know, Let's = Let us ??

Let us go is normally requesting permission to go, but it can also be a suggestion to go. Context makes the meaning cle. Let's go is only a suggestion.
