You can cut the line and out a new connector on and flare it (need the proper tools) or buy a new line and bend it yourself (also need proper tool)

Or bring it to a mechanic and have them do the line work. Won't cost much since it won't take them a long time.

Always coat your brake lines in a fluid film and use a line wrench when doing brake lines

Sadly we don't have that amazing substance here. We could really use it with all the salt they put on our roads.

As to the problem. You could try heating very carefully with a torch. I'd heat the metal that they go into more. The temperature difference might just bust the crud free and enable you to break them loose with mole grips or a good set of grips.
