The first thing you need is root access. Then you can uninstall all google apps (including system apps).
rooting is not necessary to uninstall Gapps, adb is enough
Now, I know. Does that work with older android versions too? I had trouble using adb to uninstall/disable system apps on a samsung phone running android 9. That's why I recommended rooting.
