I believe that these are the post offices that you are asking about?
Indo-Chinese Post in China:
Canton (Indo-Chinese Post Office) 1901–1922
China (Indo-Chinese Post Offices) 1900–1922
Hoi-Hao (Indo-Chinese Post Office) 1902–1922
Kouang-Tcheou (Indo-Chinese Post Office) 1898–1943
Mong-Tseu (Indo-Chinese Post Office) 1903–1922
Pakhoi (Indo-Chinese Post Office) 1903–1922
Tchongking (Indo – Chinese Post Office) 1903–1922
Yunnanfu (Indo-Chinese Post Office) 1903–1922
Although now out of print, I would have thought that the Stanley Gibbons South East Asia Stamp Catalogue - 5th Edition (2012) might list these stamps. The Scott catalog does a fair job of listing them. Michel and Yvert maybe more detailed.

The Yvert et Tellier catalog, Colonies Francaises et Bureaux Francaises a l'Etranger covers these well.
Harder to find, but more detailed, is the Maury catalog for "Europe et Asie" in its series on colonies, offices, and occupation zones.
The offices in southern China, as well as the concession of Kouang-Tcheou, were extensions of the postal system of French Indochina. Stamps marked "Chine" were, in contrast, part of the regular system of French post offices abroad, and were used in Shanghai, Peking, and a few other northern cities.

These are all listed in SG Part 17 China.
Kwangchow has its own listing as it was a leased French territory.
The others are listed under Indo-Chinese Post Offices.
