In this study, Setaria viridis was selected as the research object, the soil reinforcement mode of roots was analyzed, and the general mechanical model of soil reinforcement was proposed. The direct shear tests of root–soil composite and root tensile tests were carried out, and the relationship between the root additional cohesion and root depth was studied. Furthermore, numerical simulations were established to explore the variation law of shallow displacement and slope stability as a function of the root ratio. The results show that the effect of herbaceous plant roots on the soil was composed of material modification and root binding force on the soil. The shear strength improvement of the root–soil composite was mainly reflected by the increase in cohesion. Furthermore, the composite cohesion was positively correlated with the root content but negatively correlated with the water content. With the increase in root diameter, the tensile strength of the Setaria viridis root increased linearly, but its tensile strength decreased and showed a power relation. The greater the total cohesion of the root–soil composite layer, the smaller the total displacement and the higher the slope stability. Thus, the slope's herbaceous vegetation could effectively control the deformation and slip of the shallow soil, which has good application value for reducing soil erosion in mining areas.
