There is one soldier, that can't be assaulted (according to total number of soldiers, that is shown in mission summary). Three soldiers - two crossbowmen and a halberdier - that are near Guy of Gisbourne can be shot down by Robin using Quick Actions.

It's still better to knock them out as it gives more points. It may feel that you can't kill a single soldier in this mission, but you actually can - five soldiers in the western tower are Sheriff's men, not Ranulph's - therefore eliminating them doesn't fail the mission. They do count against spared lives ratio however. Points are not awarded for seven dead bodies that are lying around at the start of the mission. There are twelve soldiers, that can't be assaulted (according to total number of soldiers, that is shown in mission summary). Seven soldiers, which are bodyguards on a party in Sheriff's chamber can't be assaulted. Theoretically, player can knock out all soldiers behind gate (even knights), because you can get into melee fight with them when they are close to gate's steel bars - but in my opinion amount of time and number of save/reloads to pull that off are not worth it. Other idea is simply shooting down all soldiers (except knights, which are invulnerable to arrows). This is not a perfect instruction and doesn't lead to maximum score, but there's a good chance it can be done in first attempt. Taking down officer first was necessary, because he prevents recruits from fighting for the money. Throw a purse with Robin and let them fight for it, then shoot down the unlucky winner of the brawl. When this happens, four "lancers" (according to game instruction, I call them recruits) stand close to each other. Now step back and wait until enemies calm down.

When he enters Robin's bow range, shoot him as well. My suggestion for other soldiers is as follows: stand with Robin near the gate and shoot down officer so that second crossbowman can see that. Purpose for this is that after enemies calm down, one of the crossbowman will relocate and take position right above gate, where he can be shot down by Robin. They can run into inner castle by north tower and alarm the officer. After clearing accessible parts of the map player should show up in front of one of the civilians, which support Sheriff of Nottingham. There is an issue with closed gate to the inner castle. Fortunately, Robin can leave and enter castle any time he wishes by climbing the wall in east part of the map - something that enemies can't do. Another tricky part is that some soldiers change their location or behaviour after first encounter. Player needs to weaken them first, run away, return and punch them. What helps is that amount of time soldiers need to recover depends on their health (hit points). However, it's possible to have all soldiers on the map knocked out when mission ends. On Hard difficulty, enemy soldiers wake up quickly after being knocked out.
