User-agent: *
Disallow: /tag/*

this will block indexing of /tag/ in the future
as for removing from search it's up to google

I mean remove all tags have been indexed by google
You can try from google console. They have an option for removals. Or you can use noindex in robots.txt just like disallow. Either way it's not instant. It will take a long time.

PS. Why would you like stuff removed from google? People usually try to get stuff indexed. Just use a nice 404 page and redirect. More pages indexed more potential visitors.
