克修少便弓馬，從父征討，所至立功，武皇節制雁門，以克修為奉誠軍使，從入關為前鋒，破黃揆於華陰，敗尚讓於梁田坡，蹙黃巢於光順門，每戰皆捷，勇懾諸軍。 Ke Xiu was skilled with bow and horse from youth. On his father's campaigns he distinguished himself wherever he fought. When Li Keyong took command of Yanmen, he appointed Ke Xiu commissioner of the Fengcheng Army. Marching into the passes as vanguard, Ke Xiu defeated Huang Kui at Huayin, routed Shang Rang at Liangtian Slope, and drove Huang Chao back at Guangshun Gate. He won every engagement, and his boldness overawed the other armies.
