Please try like below ( I haven't tested it, but just the concept)

[index="windows" sourcetype="wineventlog:Application" SourceName="*"  (Type="Critique" OR Type="Avertissement" OR Type="Erreur" ) | stats count by host | fields host]   index="windows-wmi" sourcetype="WMI:ModelPC"  
|rex "Model=(?<model>.*)"|stats values(model) as Model by host
