It is possible that the dwarves planed to attack Smaug with only the 13, as they are a vengefull race, but i doubt that even Thorin, who suggested that the armies of the dwarves attack the Necromancer, would be foolhardy enough to have the grand plan be 13 lightly armed and armoured dwarves attack a dragon.

as an aside what did Gandalf expect the 14 to be able to do to the dragon? his whole plan was for the dragon to be destroyed.
