I tried to make a GET request to my Elasticsearch server with CURL-command,and the result showed there could be 124739 "hits", but I only got 10 items, as the following snapshot shows, is there any way that I can get or export ALL searching results?

It's the way it works by default. Pages of 10 docs.

You can change `size` and `from` parameters but don't use that to extract all docs.  
Use scroll API instead.
