Where does the error come from? The vpn server or proxy?

I can connect to port 3072 through squid 3.4.11 without problem. Can you check your settings? Also, can you check whether your squid proxy is allowing HTTPS traffic to ports other port 443?

You may need to configure your squid proxy by editing configuration files to allow the traffic.

For example, your VPN Server(203.0.113.1) is listening on port 8888.

Check your proxy server settings with the following method:
1. Configure your browser to use the proxy.
2. Try to browse https://203.0.113.1:8888/

If it is not working, you will need to modify the squid.conf to allow that port.
Make sure you have "acl SSL_ports port 8888" in your squid.conf.

I tested my squid 3.4.11 proxy and it is working when connecting to my VPN server.

Do you have access to the squid.conf in the proxy server?

Does the proxy support a basic auth?
