How can I use few commands in execv()

I'm writing a code in C and I'm trying to use 3 commands (echo, grep and wc) with excev() but its not working. It is possible to do it and if not any other solution or I will need to use fscanf().

How I want it to print in bash: code in bash

The code I wrote in C, which is not working:

    void count_lines(short unsigned int G)
    {
    g = 0;
    while (g <= G) {
        char *const command[] = {"echo","Number of lines by processes of generation",g,"is","`grep","-o","G is",g,"out.txt","|","wc","-l",NULL };
        execv("/bin/echo /usr/grep bin/wc", command);
        g++
    }
}
