Updating references in an edited document

Hello,
I wrote a scientific paper using LibreOffice and Zotero for references. After the initial revision, it was asked for me to include and exclude some references in the document. The style of references used by the journal asks for references to be put in the text as numbers, adding them in the bibliography section in the order of appearance in the text.
To do the alterations, I have to use the document that was already edited by the journal.

However, when I include new references in this edited document, Zotero starts to number them from 1 and not from the previous number how it was supposed to be.
The references I need to include are at the beginning of a 30-page document. So, manually alterations will be really painful.
Thus, I'd like to know if there is a way to update the references numbers (in the text and in the bibliography) without having to manually change them.
Thank you
