You chose a “tap” network device.  That requires some plumbing
(configuration) on the host and root privileges.  Did you configure the
bridge for tap?  See
https://gist.github.com/extremecoders-re/e8fd8a67a515fee0c873dcafc81d811c

A simpler solution would be to use “user” mode networking instead.
https://www.qemu.org/docs/master/system/invocation.html#hxtool-5 . Make
sure the user mode device id matches the id you specified later in the
device argument where you specify e1000.
