Their rational plan will be to attack simultaneously with China, in a way that draws some attention, but doesn't fully start another war. For example, they might send commandos in to kidnap the president (been done before), or they might fire artillery across the DMZ into a low population area (been done before).
If China succeeds on the battlefield, then North Korea will escalate. If China does not succeed on the battlefield, then North Korea will turn around and go home and say, "They weren't bombs, they were bread baskets." It keeps happening.
