WI: Charles Gordon survives Khartoum

Charles Gordon was killed at Khartoum in 1885. The city was under siege by the Mahdi's forces until it eventually fell.
He could've nearly survived the siege if the British relief force arrived earlier if they hadn't taken too much time preparing.

What happens if the relief force arrived early and saved Gordon and Khartoum?
