one way of doing the required renumbering would be performing a
regular expression-based replacement (using the replace-regexp or
query-replace-regexp commands) along the following lines:
regular expression: ^** Chapter \([0-9]+\)
replacement: ** Chapter \,(+ \# 1)
This assumes that the headings to be renumbered have the form "**
Chapter ##.." and the numbering should start with 1 so might need to
be adapted slightly to your use case.
best wishes,
András
