How to convert Epub to txt with number remained?

I have an Epub with <ol> and <li>, so it has number. How to remain it when I convert it to txt? Because I find the txt do not have number.

<ol> and <li> is the code adding the numbers to your list. So when the ePub is converted to text, there are no numbers in your text lists. You cannot convert to text the way you want. You'll have to go into the text files and add in the numbers by hand.

When you convert to TXT you could try going to the 'TXT output' page in the calibre conversion options and in the 'Formatting' menu choose markdown rather than plain.

The output will still be a .txt file but more of your styling will be retained using Markdown's syntax which you can read about here.
