I suspect Chinese strategy would almost allow a US invasion of NK ala Iraqi styled maneuver warfare, simply so as not to show any real need to the US for us to alter our operational art.
If we ever went to war with the Chinese, it wouldn't be the assymetrical warfare we anticipated in Iraq. Air superiority wouldn't be nearly as certain and we would probably witness very real action on our shores.
The Chinese still have an advantage in numbers of armed personnel, making quite a few operational options available to them.

Please reread the article, I can't see how PRC sending 150K troops to the N Korean border means waging WWIII with USA.

Further, if the USA invades NK, the ChiComs get to watch and learn about our operational protocols--from very close range. Intel helps.
