Removing cable from rusted guides?

My vintage steel Centurion has corrosion on the brazed-on rear-brake-cable-guides. The rust is bad enough that it seems anchored to the brake cable. I've tried penetrating oil, but the cable still doesn't want to come out of or slide through the rusted cable guides. How do I remove the brake cable without damaging the guides or the frame? Thanks!
